hi mommies, My baby is turning 3 month old and he always want me to carry him especially when he is sleeping. Every time I put him on the bed he will wake up and cry. Even though at night I need to cradle him so he can sleep soundly.. He also doesn't want to sit in the stroller. Is it because i'm a DL mother so he prefer to attach with me? is it normal? thank you..

First three months is an adjusting period for baby as well. Baby needs to feel safe and secure. That is to say, baby needs to feel that they are in a familiar environment. Naturally being closed to you makes him feel secure and calm his nervous system. You can swaddle him so that he feels like he is still in the womb. Use white noise, swing, side lying and sucking to calm baby. You can read Dr. Harvey Karp's The Happiest Baby On the Block. https://www.happiestbaby.com/blogs/blog/the-5-s-s-for-soothing-babies
