druidess6308: There are many good books on the subject, Dr. Sears being one of the best authors when I was raising mine at that age.
Basically...you can't spoil a child by holding them too much, they're not fruit. Babies have very limited needs...a dry diaper, food, sleep, and love. Hold them, sing to them, love them...and follow your instincts. It's not just mothers who have parenting instincts.
You'll be fine.
Yeah I heard that you cant spoil them really by holding them but it is when they get a little bit older you can do that.I am trying to do the best I can for them and not lose my mind too lol.At least for right now they both sleep and eat at the same time, well with few minutes difference.
Thanks for the advice.
