He smiles a lot and laughs with me, but doesn't hug or like to be hugged, or kiss me? I do breastfeed him, and thought that would create a stronger bond than bottle feeding. When I do try and hug him he either puts his arms out to the side, and doesn't put them around me, or he'll swat or push at me to get me to leave him alone? He's a VERY hyper baby, always wanting to go go go. He's never content for too long, and won't even sit still with me in my lap for more than 5 minutes????? It's frustrating and kinda feels like he doesn't care whether I'm there or not!!! I also feel sad when other people carry him around or watch him for a little while and he seems not to notice that I'm there! Is this normal? I want him to cuddle and need me......Is that asking too much from an 8 month old little boy. This is my 1st baby too, so I don't know how it should be, although I know they're ALL different..... Thanks for the advice!!!!
