Katie is hysterical when I pick her up at daycare...
This is Katie's second day at day care. Yesterday when I picked her up she was OK, until I got her in the hallway...then she screamed bloody murder. This morning when I brought her in, as soon as we hit the hallway she got the weirdest look on her face like she was going to cry. This evening when I picked her up, again she was OK and smiled at me...when I got her in the hallway again she was beside herself - hysterically screaming and turning purple. I couldnt calm the baby down either day until I got her in the car and started driving.
What's going on with her?

Is there something painted on the wall she may not like or get scared from?

It's a separation anxiety thing. Both Maddie & Joseph used to burst into tears at the sight of me after a long day. I took it as them destressing but I think it was more of a way expressing that they missed me.

Re: Katie is hysterical when I pick her up at daycare...
The halls are yellowish and not bright at all so I don't think it's the lighting. Maybe she missed me? I dont know, she smiles at first by then its instantly hysterics.
When my Mom watched her while I was in NYC for the last 2 wks she didnt cry when I came home - but do you think thats because she was at home and knew her surroundings?
I can't stand the thought of having her this upset every day.

I think that's exactly it. Also you have to give it some time. She hasn't been there that long. While it breaks your heart when she sees you & cries, it'll break your heart in a different way when she sees her teachers & puts out her arms to them & then doesn't cry when you leave.

Alex does this all the time when I pick her up from school. She's fine when I drop her off, but the second I walk into the room at the end of the day, she looks up at me, smiles, and then starts crying hysterically until I pick her up and give her a hug, and when I do, she squeezes me sooooooooooo tight and gives me a kiss... it used to worry me, but I've come to realize it's just her way of expressing that she missed me and is happy to see me.

Roman does the same thing. He will be fine and as son as he hears me or sees me he bursts out into tears. He is fine once we get out of day care.
