Advice for parental preference?

Katrina

So, my husband is a stay at home dad, and he has been for about three months now. My son is almost 8 months old. For the past month or so, he’s been struggling a lot with being able to sooth our son or get him to nap. Frequently he will scream inconsolably, and my husband pats, rocks, and shushes while he hopes the baby will cry himself to sleep. We are talking over an hour of screaming, puffy eyes, and hiccups. All I have to do is pick him up and he will stop screaming. I feed him, and he falls asleep. It seems like I’m the only thing that consoles him. I’ve read a lot about separation anxiety, but it’s not helpful. My husband has been the primary caretaker for months, and he’s a very familiar person. My baby never gets upset when I leave, he just won’t calm down for my husband. Naps and sleeping have become a bit of a nightmare, and my husband is at his wits end. Does anyone have any advice?
