Baby carrier rejection

My baby cries everytime he's being put in the baby carrier. We tried cooling with him with a handheld fan. It worked for about 10mins before he starts crying again. What do we do?

Ooo I live by baby wearing even with spine issues and chonky babies/toddlers. I think firstly is learning safe baby wearing like knowing the position, carrier types, material, max duration to carry. It's tougher but I started with bringing the pram AND carrier. Because babies warm too quick and cool just as quick. So carry half an hour in correct M legs position, head close enough to Ur chin etc. then put baby down to stretch with a low fan speed and carry again after diaper + feeding all. Babies naturally prefer contact with caregiver so keep persevering and learning because it's worth it. Also don't fall for branding and marketing. Just learn Ur body type and type of carrier, can even rent or borrow to try out and get the hang of it. I bought and sold on carousell just to figure out which works then slowly invest in first hand carriers that fits for both baby and me.

Hi! I guess its normal as the generations now some babies dont like to be in a carrier. My first born which is 19mths now doesnt like to be in a carrier since he was a baby. Its normal 🥰
