Tabatha you haven't done anything wrong.
My once year old has been doing this, not as extreme but crying when I leave the room or go out of his sight (with dad too) for two to three months. Apparently its normal at around their ages to get separation anxiety, especially if mum goies back to work, which is what I have done for a couple of days a week.
My advise is to give your baby lots and lots of love when you are with him, and perhaps when others are holding him to sit close by and let him know that mum is close and that its all ok.
Sometimes you just have to let him cry and learn that he cannot get his way all the time. He will eventually learn this and that mum is still there and that he is loved. Its all about learning for your bubs.
Good luck and remember its not your fault and I am sure what you are doing is appropriate. I know it is hard to leave your baby crying sometimes, but perhaps try to resist the urge and attempt some of the other strategies with lots of persistance.
