Experts from Spock to Sears recommend that small children be held close and often. It promotes physical and emotional health for the child -- and the mother. Inevitably, your child outgrows your ability to carry him or her with confidence. The principal measure of safety is how calm and comfortable your child feels when held up by something more reliable than your poor, tired arm. When your child feels relaxed and secure, so do you.
