Wish me luck folks!

So as an update I am seeing some improvements. She will be held now which is a relief to a certain extent so when she gets hysterical she will snuggle with me and stop. She will also sit on my knee and read. Eating is sporadic but she has napped to some extent each day this week so far. This is all I can ask for during a difficult transition. Hope....I am actually a bit relieved although sometimes the screaming is just insane and seemingly for no reason at all, but she is gradually getting there. I wont hold her constantly, goodness no, but I do know that just complete disconnect from her makes things worse so we are doing a gradual detachment. Yesterday I managed to sit her on the floor next to me. She screamed for a bit but I got her to lay her head on my leg and she stopped and started talking. After her nap she sat with my daughter, 13, who read her a story while I used the washroom and there were no tears so I am hopeful now that things will only get better even if its slowly but surely.
