How often are you supposed to just let babies cry?! Instead of picking them up all the time?! My baby is 4 weeks old and I feel like shit letting her cry, but she's getting too damn comfortable getting picked up and held all the time
My dr said the same that at this age (bc my son is also 4w) they need something but i believe they can get spoiled already bc he cries when i put him down and is sound asleep wen i hold him
That's what I thought.. Thanks everyone! I just heard people saying not to get her used to being spoiled and blah blah blah so I wasn't sure!!
You have to think your baby only knows you and your scent so she just wants to be near you as she had in the womb. I wouldn't let her cry it out. She just needs comfort.
I waited until about 3 months to try to let them cry it out. Up until then they have separation anxiety. They are used to being in a little nest. Try sleeping with a blanket for a few nights to get your scent on it and give it to baby when they get upset.
I personally think 4 weeks is too young to just let cry it out. 😞
Honestly my son is 9 1/2 months and I don't let him cry it out, never have, it's more on what you feel the most comfortable with
I love how I repeatedly told my father in law not to let my daughter root through the toy box because she doesn’t want anything out of it anyway and he keeps picking her up and taking her to the toy box no matter how many times I tell her no and tell him she doesn’t even want anything out of there anyway. At first I told him “only let her get one toy” so she picks one up and he is still holding her over the toy box then tries to put her over the baby gate so she can grab more. I’m sorry but you ...
what are you guys thoughts on letting your baby cry...my baby goes to sleep on me but once I put him down he crys and wakes up I don't like letting him cry like that so I pick him back up. he will be a month old in 2 days.
when i was pregnant i swore up and down i would never let my baby cry it out but noww i let her butt cry it out everynight because if u not wet not hungry and even when i pick u up and walk with you all that and u still crying then theres nothing else i can do just go to sleep baby
HELLPPP!! My baby wants to be held ALL the time. She will start crying loudly as soon as anyone puts her down... (& won't stop crying until she's picked back up) my question is: is a 4 month old too young for the cry it out method. Also, do you believe you can spoil a baby by holding him/her too much?! 😩💔 I'm so torn on what to do.
I don't think they can get spoiled right now. Even if baby falls asleep with you but wakes up when you put them down they just want to be with you. They have been with you for so long they don't want to be by themselves they only know being by you or with you. Give it time and baby will become more independent when she is older.
