We Have Our First Baby

congratz, good luck, sometimes the best thing to do is just let them cry, it sucks, but they'll stop. and don't worry about him not eating, kids don't starve themselves, he will eat

And eat he did. Almost 6 ounced. He's having a ball now. Thanks for all the advice.

good, glad to hear. Also when you put him down to sleep, let him cry, he will go to sleep, unless it's obviously distress or he doesn't stop after a while. He'll learn that bed time means bed time.

Funny you should post that pic because we've been calling him Ike. Of course we won't kick the baby. :D

Don't kick the baby! :p

Congrats, NJCardFan!

It is a new environment for him, so of course he's going to cry. Just love him. That is all he needs...as soon as he knows he's not going to be hurt, he will bond. Rock him, sleep with him, get him accustomed to your scent. Three months is still a good age to bond.
Good Luck and Congrats!!

We had a good day after all. He's still a little fussy but we watched a baseball game together and he's been eating like a little horse.
