Who thinks 12 is old enough to CARRY a baby . Not hold , carry . My boyfriend's little brother insists that he's old enough to carry my baby and I keep telling him no , no little kids can carry her , not just him . He says , "but I'm her uncle" and I tell him that I have little siblings that are also her uncle's , and they're not allowed to carry her either . I always let him hold her and I tell him sit down with her , but eventually he always ends up being sneaky and carrying her after a while . It pisses me off that he doesn't respect my rule but I don't want him to not like me so I don't yell at him , I just say it in a stern way . Apparently not stern enough . And my boyfriend barely even sticks up for me because he doesn't see anything wrong with 12 year olds carrying a baby
my daughter was nine when her sister was born and I let her hold fed and carry her. I just made sure to show her the proper ways to do it. at 1st I monitored her but then I trusted her to do it by herself on her own.
I would if my baby was like one or two yes old not when the baby is real little under 1
@kcamps that's what I tell him , I have no problem with him holding her as long as he's sitting down . But he doesn't see himself as a 12 year old , he tries to act grown so he doesn't think he should have to sit , he wants to stand like the older people
I think it really depends on the 12 year old but if you don't feel comfortable that's that. End of story. I barely want my sister in law touching my baby tbh lol
I mean they are young, I wouldn't. I would make them sit on a couch and hold them, there's no way I would let a 12 year old walk around with my son. They are way to full of energy and will drop them, or something. Your boyfriend should understand and respect that, especially since it's the safety of the baby.
My daughter is 3 months , I told trust her being carried with any little kids . When she's less fragile he can
