It's pretty normal baby behaviour, sorry ferrals
Sometimes it's just a short phase - developmental leap, growth spurt - sometiems it might be an illness or due to some other change that's thrown her out of whack. But a lot of the time it's really just her being a baby. Babies do like to be carreid and cuddled. Doing it won't make them 'reliant' on it, they already feel that need, but it will meet that need and allow them to settle down again more rapidly.
