Baby only wants to be held by mom. Normal? - Page 2

post #21 of 22

Unless the baby is being held by one foot I'm not quick to intervene anymore. At first I was like, "hold him upright. Bounce more. No, faster. He doesn't like to lay down like that." not so much now. Now I'm like, "are you hanging out with your sister?  Cool. Tell her if you need to move."  and now he still likes to be upright with me but he is pretty happy with everyone else, too. For a while at least.

I'm in the same situation.  Dh has problems soothing Audrey and I am getting worn out!  She is super gassy and I feel like it's all on me to try to make her happy.  He tries a little but I can't stand to hear her cry so I usually just end up trying to help her myself.
