There are some babies who are super independent, but then, there are also what many call "velcro babies" — the little ones who simply have to be with their mama at all times, especially during naptime. As it turns out, Rocky Barker might just be a velcro baby – at least according to what his mom, Kourtney Kardashian, shared during a recent Instagram Q&A when she opened up about what his napping habits are like now that he is approaching 7 months old.

Kourtney answered some fan questions on Instagram over the weekend.
Unsurprisingly, a lot of the questions revolved on Kourtney's motherhood experience and her struggle to conceive her fourth child — two things she's been very open about since the beginning.
That openness extended to the answers she gave to the fan questions she chose to answer, including one about Rocky's sleep habits.
One fellow mom asked for Kourtney's advice.
"New mumma here. Any tips on a baby who only likes to be held to take a nap?" the person wrote.
Kourtney replied, "Enjoy every second! We do the same. He's never been in his crib. It's my favorite thing in the world," adding a white love heart emoji.
Kourtney has always been a big fan of attachment parenting.
Before Rocky was born last year, Kourtney opened up about her plan to use the attachment parenting approach with him, like she has done for her older children.
"That’s what I did for my last two kids, we didn’t leave the house for the first 40 days. After, you’re super-connected and I love that," she told Vogue in 2023.

She also opened up about her IVF journey.
And though she ultimately decided to discontinue IVF, Kourtney did share some encouraging words for a follower who has been going through it herself.
"I stopped after a year of trying (5 failed IVF cycles, 3 retrievals) my body relaxed and I believed in God's plan for my life," she wrote. "Lots of prayers for whatever was meant to be for us. Also lots of optimizing my health. I know how hard it is to feel like you're not trying, but believing in God's plan and saying your prayers is so powerful. All the best!
We can't blame Kourtney for soaking up those baby snuggles.
After all, babies turn into toddlers who are way too busy to let you cuddle them to sleep – and eventually, they become big kids who are way too cool to cuddle Mom. It's good to see them becoming independent, but there's nothing like having a baby snoozing in your arms.
Get all those snuggles in now, Kourt!
