How much crying do you tolerate?

[Dreamalittledream]

Oh boy do I feel your pain. I have a 1 year old that has visited a few times with his Mom this week and is having his first day alone here today. So far he was okay for the first hour then screamed ever since. He has refused bottle, taken a little food between sobs and I've finally been able to get him to fall asleep. We'll see how he is when he wakes up but man that constant screaming is really unnerving & there's only so much you can pick them up. It's early on the game, I'm sure he'll be just find with patience and cuddles. It's so hard on them. This is his first time being left with anyone, so strange me, strange kids, lots of stimulation...poor little guy.

I know...it is really hard on them! And it depends on their personalities and experience how they take it. I started another 1 year old 2 weeks before this one and he has never cried at all except for a few seconds when his mom leaves. He is happy and easy going all day long...I totally hit the jackpot with that one! And I really want this new one to be okay as I feel bad for him being under so much stress. At least I know I am not alone!
