My LO seems to scream whenever DH is holding him/changing his diaper/or any other activity. Anyone have suggestions on how to help form the bond between the two?

    give baby to hubby during quiet alert times or for sure keep the diaper changes going.   i hand off baby when he is settled down-like right after a feeding.   or when he is happily sucking on his paci etc.   our hubby's don't have what baby wants (or needs-we are the food source).   babies tend to like higher pitched noises-so our hubby's deep voice is not so soothing.     as my husband says our 3 year old didn't really like him a lot until about a year ago.  it gets better

    the other thing you could do is just leave for like an hour and let the two of them figure out that they have to "like" eachother.   i did that for my hubby and son just so they had to spend some time with eachother.

    Does your DH feed your LO ever? That helps

    Have your husband sleep with one of baby's blankets for a few nights.  Then let the baby sleep with it... it'll help him get used to daddy's smell.
