Can babies suffer separation anxiety from a father?

Answer by  lgk (2426)

Yes it is very possible for them to suffer separation anxiety from the father if they are used to him being there on a daily basis. The claim infants only suffer this with the mother is a myth, as they can have just a strong a bond with the dad too. Don't worry, mom will be able to calm them.
