my baby doesn’t want to sleep in my arms anymore

Amelia

so for starters i am a new, young mom. my baby used to only want to sleep in my arms. now, at almost 3 months he just squiggles when i hold him. i feel like when he was younger, i was so sleep deprived i was just worried about getting him to sleep in his crib, i wasn’t able to enjoy all of the snuggling. i am so sad i took it for granted. im afraid he became independent early because of this. is this normal for your baby to want to sleep out of your arms? or even be uncomfortable being held if not sleepy? or does my baby not like me? :(
