My icks as a first time mom

1. “Cry it out method” I don’t follow this method and I always respond to my baby. It’s possible to get your baby to sleep through the night without this. My baby is currently sleeping 10-14 hours a night at 9 months and has been since a few months old

2. “You hold her too much” I don’t think you can spoil a child by holding them too much 😅 Research shows you can't spoil your baby by responding when they cry or by holding them too much. Babies are suppose to be stay close to mom for developmental well being. I don’t regret doing contact naps in the early days. I miss them 🥹

3. “I did that with my baby and they turned out fine” just because you did a certain thing doesn’t mean I need to do it/ make it safe 😅

Let me know what your icks are in the comments! 👀😅
