my baby cries so much?

How on earth can you spoil a baby? By feeding or holding it?

I would stop listening to stupid uneducated people. Do what you feel is right for your son! There is absolutely nothing wrong with holding your baby a lot. He needs a lot of love and attention. And by giving him those things he needs cuddles and kisses.

You can buy a sling/carrier if you're not able to get things done around the house. That way he will be close to his mummy and you will have your hands free.

You are blessed that he is sleeping through the night. Mine both did at 2 months. As long as he is feeding well during the day and putting on weight, I wouldn't worry!

He wants human contact. There's nothing wrong with holding a baby 'round the clock. Get a carrier or sling and give him what he needs. I even had a mesh sling for showering. Cluster feeding is also totally normal when they sleep longer at night.

My kids were held nearly constantly for a minimum of their first four months. From four to about six months, they were only put down for very short periods. One of my sons was held pretty much his first year, and now he's the one who is almost scary independent and adventurous, not spoiled and clingy.

Take him to a different pediatrician who you feel listens to you. Because it could be any of a range of simple things. My 2nd daughter only ever wanted me or my mum and noone else and if I or her wasn't around...she'd cry too. I ended up wheeling her pushchair into the bathroom so I could take a shower because I couldn't take the screaming whilst I washed if noone else was around...and yes my house was a bombsite too. I suggest two things. One hire a cleaner or get some help with the baby so you can atleast sort out the house. Because of course its not important but I know the kind of stress that you can get just snow balling when you have a bomb site for a house because your baby never settles so your can't cook or clean or even wash and then you start feeling depressed because you think everything is on top of you. So that will be one thing out of the way. And the other is to take him to a different pediatrician who listens. It might be something else and if a good doctor listens to all the things you describe then you might be able to find the solution instead of them telling you...he's not spoilt....because you don't want to know what he isn't but what....is...the issue.

Ok My daughter is 3 month old and YES she was the same way till about a week ago. She was spoiled once I stopped holding her all the time and letting her cry it out (which is called self soothing) and now she is good. Do NOT get me wrong I STILL hold her and play with her I just don't hold her all the time and DO NOT let him fall sleep on your chest all the time that was were I messed up BIG time and that's the ONLY way she'd fall sleep. Even when I had a babysitter while I worked I had to tell them when she got tired that's what they'd have to let her sleep on their chest, that's how bad it got. Hope this helps. Try it and see what happens.

But then again he is your child and you do what you think is best.

It could be just gas or likes being held get a moby wrap or a sling that way he's comfortable and your hands are free. My son was like that but he had colic and a milk protein allergy

My daughter was doing the same but I learnt a few waysto soothe her as listed below:

Try wrapping/swaddle the baby

Place the baby in automatic swing

Turm on some white noise(easily found on youtube)

For swing, I have this one for my daughter which works wonders for me.Hope it helps you too.
