cant put baby down

2 weeks 5 days...

  Either Lincoln has separation issues already, or he's figured out if he cries Momma or Daddy will hold him. The last few days my mobility has been reduced significantly by my baby crying whenever he's put down, even if he was asleep to begin with as soon as I lay him down he's kicking off.

I'm currently writing this blog one handed on a laptop balanced on my lap while I hold the baby in one arm resting on a pillow. I'm debating buying a baby wrap-sling to have him strapped to me all the time, or sticking it out with persistence to get him to settle in his own crib. Hmmm, we still haven't given a dummy yet. They don't recommend dummies for breast fed babies, but we do have a packet of them unopened (just in case) I'm starting to wonder if it would be a good idea to soothe him when he's not actually wanting the boob!
