One thing I strongly dislike is when people tell me how to care for my baby without me asking for help or their input. Any time older ppl see you “carry your kid too much”, they are quick to call the babies spoiled. But I’ve seen real spoiled kids both rich and poor and Ive seen how that happens… you can’t spoil your baby.

Babies need comfort, they are still establishing trust in you and their world. They need to know they can count on you to be there when they cry.

So I take their advice with grain of very tiny and thin whole grain salt lol we each need to figure out the flow that works best for our babies.
