My 9 mo DD is very high needs. She's very, very attached to her Daddy and I. We have always believed it's impossible to spoil a baby and have tried to meet her needs since birth - she's never CIO, slept alone or been denied attention when she needs/wants it.
The past few weeks have been really rough - she has 4 teeth coming in, has learned to stand and her sleep has gone to the pits. We are moving 1800 miles in 2 weeks and are pretty stressed trying to find a place to live remotely. The house is a mess, the cat is hysterical and my mother in law is landing in Florida in 5 days. Suffice it say, tensions are pretty high around here.
DD has been the Neediest Neederson from Needyville that you have ever seen. She cries if she is put down, if she hears me sneeze, if the moon is rising or the sun setting, all of which ends the minute she is picked up. Today my hubby asked if she still qualifies as a a baby, because he's worried she getting spoiled.
Sooo, what do you think? Can you spoil a 9 month old with attention? Are we doing her a disservice by responding every time she cries?
