Is it wrong to always pick up your baby when he cries?!! He is only one month old... my mom keeps saying im spoiling him but im not gonna leave my baby to cry
Thanks for the advice@babyjjsmommy, i really appreciate it ☺️ i dont want him to cry for no reason when he gets older
I agree with @andrewsmommy, it depends. I say at one month old they're still so little they're pretty much crying because they need something or want the comfort if they're not colic. I think by 4 months would be a good idea to stop immediately rushing to baby when they start whining. Unless they are hurting or need something, they don't necessarily need to be held 24/7. I made that mistake as well, and though it's sweet that my son loves me so much it makes life extremely difficult at times. He doesn't really play for any length of time by himself, he constantly wants me and only me, and he'll be a year old next month. I wish that I would've taught him to self soothe more than I did and possibly let him cry it out at times where he was just being whiny. Because now when I try to let him cry it out it's just too stressful to try and continue anything that I'm doing and listen to all that, especially when I know nothing is wrong. Lol
Okay... i give him gripe water sometimes when he is fussy and ill try the minutes thing so he doesnt get spoiled too much
Maybe try something for colic and see if it helps and try and let him cry for a min then two little by little try breaking him by doing minutes here and there and having daddy hold the baby to.
At 6 months it was sooo difficult to do anything or go anywhere cause he wanted me to hold him. i ended up having to let him just cry.
True but at some point they will except to get picked up for eveything. One thing I learned about always picking him up was it made it very difficult for other family to hold him. He would scream his lungs out if my mom or dad held him.
Thats what im saying... it could be something wrong when he cries... but how will i know if i dont pick him up
Mine had really bad colic when he was a baby. My fiancé thought he was just being a baby and wanted to be held but it was because no mater what he couldn't get comfortable. After about four month when he got rid of the colic he like being down and more. He also winged him self off at seven months and started putting himself to be with no trouble
But its hard for me to hear him crying and not pick him up 😔😔😔@andrewsmommy
Sometimes yes it is spoiling. I picked my son up everytime he cried and I regret it
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
I did research and on this age you can not spoil your baby.so don't worry about it.🤗when mine is crying I pick her up and she is smiling and I can die for this smile 😘😘😘😘
