I've noticed that I usually hold our LO in the upright position, but DH usually always holds her sideways.
-
I used to hold her in the cradle position, but I've noticed lately she prefers to be held upright (she's a little over 4 months old).
-
I almost always hold her upright...ever since she was a newborn she preferred to be upright. My husband holds her upright too but sometimes he tries to hold her sideways and she just looks awkward and uncomfortable
-
I used to always hold her in the cradle position. Now I alternate between upright, and cradle. If I'm trying to calm her down I still always do cradle b/c when she's upright she likes to practice her head control, and she gets really wiggly and excited.

I hold her upright!
-
Upright, almost always. She loves to rest on my shoulder and wrap her arms around me. It's like she's already hugging at 7 weeks:)
-
As a newborn, my son loved it when I held him face down. i'd support his body on my arm with his head near the crook of my elbow. It also relieved his gas.
-
For the first couple months, she preferred the cradle hold but now she likes to be held upright always.
-
We cradle held her for the first 2-3 months, then started holding her upright. Now we always hold her upright and sit her on our hips.
-
upright since the beginning
cradle seems to give him ideas about eating when he's not hungry
-
My LO had reflux so she preferred to be upright.
-
Upright unless she's sleepy. When she's sleepy and upright, she tries to fight sleep by banging her head on my collarbone.
-
We always held him upright because he had reflux as an infant. He didn't like being cradled much.
-
She use to let me hold her in the cradle but now only while nursing. My husband and I both hold her upright.
But she'll let my mom hold her in pretty much any position!
