Nap issues

Justina • dentist Baby Chuck born 10/03👶🏻! 2 angel babies👼🏻👼🏻

For the most part, my son sleeps from 8pm to 5 am, so no issues with night sleep. But he will only nap in someone’s arms 😩😩. He will be asleep and the moment you lay him in the crib, he wakes up crying. My heart can’t take him letting him cry it out but that may be the only option. My mom said it was bad for him to be held for all naps ?! Help !!
