Does your baby trust you?

Wow its been quite awhile since my last post, but I've been pretty busy with a baby that just recently wants to be the complete center of ALL of my attention. Normally the bambino is great with relaxing in his swing or either getting his exercise in with tummy time, or just simply babbling and blowing bubbles. Not sure what has caused this onset of wanting to be a baby and be held all the time...how dare he!!! :)
The dilemma I guess I've been faced with is rather or not to let my LO have those "cry it out" episodes or not. Now normally the bambino isn't a typical crier. He's mostly a very happy, easy going, laughing and smiling type of baby. If and when he cries it's because he has a wet or poopy diaper or he's hungry. I can't even begin to tell you how many books or online sites that I've read about this topic, and it seems like no matter what method you choose there will always be a critic to your decision. 
If you're constantly picking them up then you're "spoiling" the baby, or if you let them cry it out then your losing that sense of trust your baby has for you. So the question is which method is correct? My answer to that would have to be to each its own. All babies are different and I don't think there is one type of parenting style that fits perfectly to every child. I think you should be open to trying different ways if your way isn't working properly.
I personally have tried the "cry it out" method and it broke my heart to listen to my baby cry his eyes out. Needless to say thats not the method I am currently using in my household. Babies are so delicate and precious, and at such young ages their only way to communicate is to cry, so if they're crying then its obviously a reason behind it. Temporary emotional abandonment just isn't my style. I've also heard the what you would call "ol' school" moms say that you're spoiling the baby by not letting them cry. Like really? How are you spoiling something that only wants to be loved and comforted? At such a young age a baby simply doesn't yet learn that having crying fits get them attention.  On the contrary, the more responsive you are to an infant’s needs, the less “spoiled” the baby will be as they get older. Bonding creates trust, and children with secure attachments tend to be more independent, not less. 
The one thing I know that I want to have with my son is a great loving relationship were he not only knows that I love him with all of my heart, but were he also trusts me.... and that trust starts now. 
Ps. I'm holding him right now :-D
