re: Can a six week old baby cry because it wants to be held by you?

God bless you, man.

I’m just getting through the hell of baby 1 and baby 2 is on the way.

TRY to soak it up and enjoy the time with your baby. They’re frustrating and the sleep deprivation is catastrophic, but these early years when YOU are everything your child needs are so precious.

Eyes half open, cranky AF, 4 AM...I’m miserable, but I know that I will cherish these moments when they’re all grown up. Try to keep that perspective and know that these truly brutal, sleep scarce times only last for a year max. Hopefully.

And sorry....for advice...6 weeks is too early for cry it out. My boy and I hit the couch. He slept on my chest.
