My baby was hyperactive tonight and refused to sleep when it was Way past his usual bedtime by two hours. I look after him by myself and was a little tired cause I woke up at 7am and it had been 15 hours and I did not have any rest. I asked my hubby for help and all he told me was he will just let him cry and I have spoilt the kid by picking him up every time he cry. I am very angry and told him that he is being unfair with his statement. Baby Is only 7 month old! What did I do wrong by trying my best to comfort him each time?!

this thread! LOL, LO is now 29 months. We no longer attend to him or carry him immediately when he cry cause now he is not a baby already. our approach is to let him express his emotions and then ask him if he is ok and the reason of him crying. it normally won't last more than a minute before he starts playing happily or laugh at himself for crying. when he was infant and can't express what he wants or needs it is necessary to comfort him as quick as possible. now he can reason and express vocally, things gets easier!
