Shoutout to my wife for shutting down that old 'spoiled baby' myth
We always heard from my mom that holding our newborn too much would make him clingy. I argued it was just an old wives' tale. My wife found a bunch of articles saying it's really good for bonding. We showed them to my mom, and she finally backed off. Now we cuddle our kid without guilt, and he's super happy. It feels like a win for modern parenting against outdated ideas.
