Serana does not offer following if another person is already following you

When I try to talk to Serana, she talks but doesn't give me the option to tell her to follow me. I've already beaten the Dawnguard quest line and Serana is human now and I just had Lydia as a follower, if any of that helps. (I'm playing on the Xbox 360.)

From the Skyrim Wiki:

If told to wait, the option to "Follow me" may not appear when spoken to. If the cell is unloaded, she may disappear forever and it may only be fixed with console commands.

If the main questline for Dawnguard is finished, asking to part ways may fix this. If she will not continue following during the questline, she will appear at scenarios requiring her. If not, using ally commands to move her into the area may also work.

Also, sleeping for 3 days and then entering a new area will cause her to come running up to you.

Another Wiki has a similar solution:

To get Serana following again after asking her to "Wait", go somewhere far away (like inside Fort Dawnguard) and wait three to five days.

How do I fix serana not following me?

i had same issue. Only thing I found to work was loading a previous save. Press the button next to 1 on the top row of the keyboard to bring up the console, then type that string in and press enter, it should then allow you to get Serana to follow you once more.

Can you have two followers with serana?

You can have Serana continue to follow you once the quest line is over, and you will have 2 followers. You can even dismiss the second follower and pick up another instead while Serana continues to follow.

How do you get serana as a follower again?

When you first meet Serana, she was imprisoned along with an Elder Scroll in an underground tomb within Dimhollow Crypt. The purity of her vampiric blood gives her the title Daughter of Coldharbour. If you complete the entire Dawnguard questline, she becomes a permanent follower.
