Can You “Spoil” your baby?

Nope just gunna have a good bond, I think babies need what they need ❤️

Not at all, anyone who tells you otherwise has outdated advice or is trying to sell you something. This little person literally depends on you for it's very survival, you can't "spoil" then with too much closeness

I wouldn't call it spoiling, but if you wanted to look into gentle sleep training methods for a smoother day, you could always do that

My husband said I did this and so did her pediatrician but idc, they're only gonna be this small once so cherish it

Definitely not. It's bonding. We did contact naps until 2.

I feel like spoil is the wrong word completely- I have the same issue but I feel like babies temperaments make them more needy or more able to sleep on their own and I refuse to let my baby scream and get distressed when I could easily resolve it by being with him So I definitely don’t think it’s spoiling it’s just doing the best you can for your babies needs and temperament! And I bloody love the cuddles because one day he won’t do that :(

You can't spoil a baby. It does just make doing things when they're asleep difficult. But I see that time as my break time. They're only small once enjoy the cuddles

My baby was held for most of his naps until 13 months and has just started going for some naps in his cot, he has had a couple of 2 hour naps in there now but before three hasn’t been able to settle in the cot at all during the day.

Giving your child comfort is not spoiling them. My baby has slept fully through the night in her own bed since she was 13 weeks old, but absolutely refused to sleep any way other than a contact nap until she was 7 months old, and the only reason that happened was because we where on holiday and it was simply just to hot to contact nap.

Did this with both my kids, they now will come to me when tired or sad and have a good understanding that I’m there when they need it, but other than that they are so independent and sometimes just won’t even let me smother them anymore. They push me away when they no longer want hugs and I’m okay with it. It’s a small time that they need you fully, sometimes I look back and miss that contact napping😭 I get to hold my 2 year old every now and then for naps now, but she likes her space.

Only milk spoils ♥️

I thought this too but truthfully at the end of the day they are BABIES. Little humans who have no idea how this world works and only know us as safe.

Yup, totally spoiled. He is going to sleep with you until he's 30!
