Hi! Actually, although it may seem early for a <a href="http://www.easybabylife.com/3-month-old.html">3 month old baby </a> to be afraid of strangers, I don't think you should worry at all. The other side of the coin is that your baby has really bonded with her nearest family, which is the far more important development aspect. Maybe your baby will outgrow this behavior quickly, maybe not. Some babies are more sensitive than others. It is probably good that you're out socializing, but puch her! She needs you and your arms to fees secure. Over time she will be ready to give your arms up for some longer excursions. Hope this calms you down! /Paula

Every baby I have ever known has her own personality. And why wouldn't she? We all respond differently to different situations. Your baby may very well be expressing a nascent personality type. Even if your child is not displaying a social preference, it is perfectly normal for a child -- particularly an infant -- to bond tightly to the people who provide daily care. Both of my children were very "clingy" when they were babies. Now, my son (9) is very outgoing and has many friends and acquaintances and my daughter (8) is introverted and has one close friend. My point being that their crying antics in infancy did NOT indicate a problematic adolescence. HOPE THIS HELPED!!
