Is the issue crying?

I don't carry babies around. I will comfort and sit close to a child who is new but I refuse to carry them around. I have a boy who is on his 5th week now. He has been crying off and on still. Today was good, he only cried the whole 40 minutes we were outside. Other than that he was good. He actually fell asleep without a peep today for the first day!!

Kids that are carried, rocked, coddled at home will have a lot tougher time transitioning.
