How can he literally be asleep in my arms, but suddenly have so much energy to cry once I put him in the crib?

Yup he just wants to be close to momma. Mommas boy already ❤️ get use to it lol my son is my monkey just clings to me daily

I had this issue, until someone told me after they fall asleep, wait and hold them 15 minutes and slowly take them to lay them down. that's when they have their first really deep sleep. it worked for me. Hope this helps

Thanks @stephrox! Will try!

you're welcome . LMK if it helps!!!

Will do!
