It can be a phase: Around 7-12 months many babies become anxious about separating from parents or even becoming super clingy, especially around strangers. Most parents describe this as you have. The good news is it is a normal phase of development and will change. If he has problems with sleeping, not eating/drinking or the problem persists you should get him checked out. Good luck and good patience.
