My son really struggles every time anyone has watched him (which has only been about 3 times).

Each time it was not in his usual environment and it was at their house. The last person that watched him called him a challenge...

He’s not an overly emotional baby at all. He gets fussy frequently but never cries like he does with babysitters. It’s usually always a family friend that watches him. Does he just take some time to adjust to new environments? Is this normal baby behavior?

I also feel like he already has some stranger danger even though that doesn’t normally appear until 6+ months.

I just want to have a life sometimes and have a night away. I’m with 24/7 and I wouldn’t change that I just need a break occasionally and feel guilty when he’s so fussy for the babysitter

I wouldn’t stress it mama, he just wants his mom but has to realize early on that babysitters are ok too! My girl cried her eyes out the first few times with grandma but does fine now!
