My 8 month old just wants to be in my arms

My 8 month old just wants to be in my arms.. every time I try to put him down in his toys or jumperoo he starts crying.. I pass him to dad he’ll be fine a couple seconds and then he’ll cry.. I sit down 5 seconds, cry’s.. I just honestly don’t know what to do.. and I don’t go and pick him up right when he starts to cry I kind of wait a little minute or two. I just need suggestions and tips and tricks..

From a first time mom who doesn’t know what to do…
