a baby, especially newborn is still getting used to the outside world. it's terrifying for some. imagine you were being protected in a nice and warm environment for almost 40 weeks, but then one day you were struggling to get out and overwhelmed with the lights, sound, sight, smell and taste if a totally different environment, won't you feel scared and alone?
a baby feels that way, hence we will always try our best to make them feel safe, and comforted. crying til they stop on their own definitely break the bond. cuddle n kisses last only for a short few years before they don't even wanna be hugged.
enjoy the precious first few years, both you and your child :)
