My baby wants to be glued to me always and it's really giving me concerns

My baby wants to be glued to me always and it's really giving me concerns my baby is six months old today her recent behaviours are giving me concern. She is becoming so glue to me, she always wants me to be with me (carry her). secondly, she doesn't sleep well she sleep in ten minutes time she's awake both day and night. thirdly, she sweats a lot from head to toe especially when she's sucking breast and the sweat is more at her head even when I did not rub her cream which is just shea butter and coconut oil.

The case of excessive sweat (hyperhidrosis) is not so common but it does exist. Keep your child hydrated, give alot of fluid preferably water.. Reduce the temperature of the AC more so as to make the room cooler. If you are still bothered about the sweat, visit a paediatrician to confirm if it's a case of true hyperhidrosis"

Do ensure that you relax, keep the baby in a comfortable room, ensure the baby is well fed as well...avoid noise and distractions that could make the baby not to sleep well..ensure frequent diaper changes once wet, not waiting till there is poo in the diaper. A well-fed baby should sleep at leat 5 -6 hours at night but can wake to just breastfeed.

It is normal for a baby to always be clued to her mum. No worries. It's a normal phenomenon.
