i totally agree with u... but when his father holds him for more than 5 mins he crushes into tears... i believe this is not normal... babies when get used to see more faces and deal with them they end up more social and open that;s all... as u read i am intending to be with him all time...
but at the end of the day i still dont know what's right and wrong



well best thing is the Dad should spend time with him, shower play , swiming ,play,hug ,he need to feel his father

it looks like you are facing trouble dealing with baby?did you had relatives over?i have a 3 month old son and from his birth my mom and both in laws were here. then they went away after a month and my dad and sis came over for another 15 days.my mom went away after 3 months.ds was used to seeing lots of faces and use to come to me for feeds.it took a lot of effort,time and patience but now he plays with his dad too (for some time) and alone in his gym too.otherwise he wanted to be held upright in arms and keep on walking all the day through the house.its very difficult and painful to do that(i had c section and it got inflammed, still have pain as my baby is quite healthy too )he bacame very attached to me. in a way i love it...he is still sleeping in my arms. try leaving him for shorter periods of time.both of you sit together and play.he will start loving it and would be with your DH for longer time.instead of day care have you thought about hiring a part time nanny? one who comes on hourly basis?

Maybe leave him with dad when he cries and teach dad how to comfort him rather than having the baby handed back to you when he starts crying ? If he cries when his dad handles him then no doubt he will do the same with strangers. Start at home first - get the baby used to being handled by his dad would be the better answer I think

good point... will try to wish me luck... and also if any1knows abt a day care let me know
