Posted by: pumkin757 Feb 12 2008, 06:49 AM
My 19 week old baby cries hysterically everytime his dad holds him, The father and i don't live together but was around throughout the whole pregnancy and up to now, but recently he have not see him on a regular, so now he sees him every other day. it breaks my heart to hear him cry and have no clue what can cause him to cry like that with his father. Any suggestions would be helpful,

He probably just senses it's somebody he doesn't know. AND the dad is probably nervous to hold him (especially since he crys), he senses his nervousness and cries more. Just a guess though. hug.gif

That was my thoughts also.

Yep, that'd be my guess too.

yeah my guess would also be that dad is nervous and so baby senses it and is also uncomfortable. I would try to make dad more comfortable and try to get him to relax.
