Spoiling my kid?

Find the baby book "the baby sense"
It will be a lifesaver

9 months in 9 months out. I refuse o understand people and their inability hold their babies at 6 weeks. For goodness sake they need love ad attention. My son is 5 months old and super independent and some days he's super clingy and that's okay!

Hold her and love her. She is a baby who's afraid of the world. She's been in a nice safe little place for 9 months give her time to adjust:). Wearing her makes it easier my little monkey hated being worn. To be honest when he needs held I will hold him. I don't care how old he is. Some kids come by clingy naturally and some kids don't. They need held for a reason so hold them:). They have plenty of time to grow up and not need you.

Being that little you can't spoil her yet. Once they get older is when they start to put two and two together.

No no no!! Don't Ben worry about it. You are making her feel SAFE an SECURE. This will help her be more independent as she gets older because she knows she can count on you. I was always that way with my son and he's a very independent and happy, tantrum free toddler now. My DD is in a carrier even more than he was. It's a great way to keep them happy and still be able to use your hands and get things done!

By comforting your baby while she is fussing you will teach her that u r there for her. she is onyl 6wks it is impossible to spoil a 6wk old.

Could it be gas?

Thanks ladies. It's worryin me. Especially today when for the past 5 hours she has wanted me RIGHT there with her. But she's been super fussy, cries for no reason (clean diaper, fed, burped, not to hot/cold, generally a healthy, happy baby), and gets WAAAAYYY worse if I leave her. I just can't bring myself to let her "cry it out". Most I do is take breaks to eat and cool down for 5 min tops before I can't stand it and go back to her (at which point she calms down a little LOL). I just don't know

At six weeks she is still adjusting- remember, she was in a dark, warm, quiet place where all she could hear was your heart, voice, breath until about six weeks ago. We swaddled and carried our second dd until she was about six months old, because that is what she needed in order to cope with environmental stimulation. At sixteen months she still prefers being held or worn, yet she is also very independent. Just pop her in the carrier and go about what you need to do- you will both feel better :)

She is not havin it today. LOL No carrier doesn't want me to hold her just wants me to be right next to her while she lays on the bed. She goes between nursing to drawin in her hands and feet while cryin/screamin to a quick nap and repeat. Guess I should open another post and ask if it's the dreaded colic I've heard about?

Hold her as long as she will let you! You are doing a great job mama!

No, no hun, 6 wks is a growth spurt! Everytime lo cries offer the boob... she's probably uncomfortable and thinks she's starving....lol! It'll get better

No that is not true. Showing your babies love does not spoil them. it develops a bond. If you show other people in your life, it doesnt spoil the (Ie/hubby, so, etc.)

She is a baby it is ok to baby her. I dont think you can spoil an infant.
