Hi Mummies, my 4 month old baby recently started crying really loudly in the early night like 6pm-9pm when/if my mil or husband is carrying her. Usually when i need to bathe or eat my dinner. Normally, she does well with being carried by them. She is with me 24/7 except when i bathe or eat my meals. Is this part of a growth spurt? It can be quite upsetting for my husband when she starts to cry in his arms. Please advise! :(

I am facing this now. My lo is going 3 month. As the baby is with mummy 24/7 she might be recognizing the mummy smell for secure and comfort. My hubby will try to coax the baby until she calm down which take awhile. Only when its nearly milk time then she refused to being coax by my hubby. Maybe can share with your hubby how does your lo like to be carry or what she like will help to calm her too.
