I spent this past week with my father who just met DS for the first time. We were on a walk and DS was in the sling and I was pushing an empty stroller in case he needed it. Then he started fussing and pushing himself away from me which is usually his way of saying "im sick of the sling" so I took him out and carried him but eventually he was too heavy so I put him in the stoller. He immediately started crying. So in a flash I took him out. My dad says I went to him too quickly. He doesnt think I need to let him "cry it out" but I should just give him like 30 seconds or a minute to see if he gets distracted on his own as there was lots of things to see on the walk. This never occured to me before. What do you think?
