Suz - The thing you gotta remember is Lola KNOWS you're there, when your dad had her in a different room, she knew you were in the other room, that would of added to her panic of being with someone shes unsure of... for example, when i first left Finn at my mums for a few hours, he screamed the place down, my mum stood with him at the window and they watched me walk away as soon as he couldnt see me, he stopped crying and got on with it.
Its like ive seen BFing mums say on this forum loads, if they go out and daddy gives the last bottle, theyre fine with it, but if they try and do it when mummys in the house, the baby wont have it, they can sense when mummy is around.
I think the swimming is a great idea and should hopefully allow her to realise that daddy time is fun time, he can be in the pool and you can take her thru the changing rooms and pass her to him, stand there for a couple of minutes so she knows your around and as she starts enjoying it, go and sit where she cant see you, she may cry for a while, but she will probably come round and start to enjoy herself, its worth a try isnt it, if it doesnt work you havent lost anything.
