Is it normal for my 7 month old baby to be afraid of new people. She screams and cry when some of the new people grabs her. Not all but just some. It all started when a lady picked her up, and took her away from my arms, without even talking to her, and that was the first time she met this lady. After that she is been so afraid. Anonymous
Dear Anonymous:
Well of course. She doesn’t know strangers. It is perfectly normal for babies to make “strange.” When someone goes to pick her up and doesn’t speak to her how rude is that? A child is a human being to and deserving as much respect as adults. If someone tried to pick me up and take me somewhere without asking I would scream too!
Best Wishes!
