Joey was 12 weeks old when we got him, but when he cried, I held him, and he stopped crying. I would carry him around the house in one of those bags slung over my shoulder, if I had to do work. When I was at the computer he was on my lap, and I didn't respond much to threads the first 6 months after I got him, it was too hard to type. He out grew it. I'm not sure I would recommend the way I did it, but I could not bear to hear him cry.
Never punish for crying, the best way is probably to see why they are crying, fix what you can, and than ignor the crying.
