Let baby cry non stop?

My baby is 7 weeks old. My hubby insist to let the baby cry non stop when the baby is cranky. Meaning diaper already change also feed the baby. My baby like to be hold, pat and walk around so she could fall aslp easily. My hubby said want to train the baby from young but I cant bear to see her keep crying non stop till cough and choke. My heart break but i cant do anything when I pumping my milk and my hubby is the one looking after her during this period of 30 to 45 mins. It is ok to let baby keep crying till she stop? I really afraid it will hurt her lungs for keep crying so badly :( Appreciate any kind advices. Thank you

Your baby is still quite young. For me, I can't bear to see my baby cry for so long. There is no right or wrong answer for this I would say. These are just different parenting methods. If you are uncomfortable, better to talk to your husband and find a different strategy that both of you agree on..

Yes. She is still young. That is why I feel my hubby is not right to do the training now. Heartbreaking to see her cry till cough and choke a few times before she stop. Nearly quarrel over this thing everytime my baby start cranky and cry. I am the one who will carry her walk around my house, sing song and pat her for 1hr plus before putting her down her bed. But sometimes when put down , she start crying again. I will repeat the same thing till she sleep soundly. It is stressful when me and hubby have different opinion on our parenting method.
