That was DS6, exactly! He literally screamed for his first 6 months. He wouldn't let DH hold him for more than a few minutes at a time, my mom was the only other person he would be ok with and even her it was for an hour max. I did everything 1 handed, the sling was my best friend and to this day I sometimes talk out loud to myself because I got in the habit of narrating my activities. I remember the rest of my family thought that I was just overprotective and needed to let someone else take care of him for awhile so he would "get over it". For some reason, no one ever offered to babysit again after the first time...
It was so frustrating because I was constantly being told it was my fault he was screaming, that if I would just ______, then he would stop. The only thing that cured it was when he started talking and crawling. I think he was just supremely pissed that he knew what he wanted and we were too stupid to understand, lol.
