    Well, that’s not necessarily true, but generally speaking it’s moms who spoil their kids at dad’s expense.

    That wasn't my experience.  Our first delivery was our daughter.  It was badly presented and so my wife needed a general anaesthetic. Consequently the first person my daughter saw was me.  For months thereafter she would relax and sleep for me but not for my wife.

    I haven't notice this since I don't spend a lot of time around infants.

    Its just a natural reaction.  Most likely, it developed, because mothers are the ones who are physically capable of feeding the baby.
