[quote=Anonymous]My daughter had intense stranger anxiety (which is different than separation anxiety,) and ended up very shy. She was great for about four weeks. She did not care who held her. Then at about 8 weeks she started caring. My sister came to visits and would not let her hold her. It only got worse. I remember at 12 weeks we went to visit inlaws, and no one could hold her. It peaked around 18 months. She still would not let her grandparents touch her at 18 months, but started to get better at 2.5-3. What replaced the stranger anxiety was shyness. She is still extremely shy around even extended family. I am introverted, but since she came along I have had to be so much more extroverted to compensate for her. [/quote]
