Please do hold him firmly, as quite often bunnies will jump out of your arms, unexpectedly. They often end up with broken backs after doing that. (ask any exotics veterinarian). Patience, kindness and prudence. I've been a rabbit owner for 28 years, I can't imagine ever not having a buns. I adore them. They make wonderful pets and they are all so difference character wise. I have one rabbit that i've had for 6 years. He still doesn't like to be held, or even pet really. My other rabbit who i've had for 3 years lives to be in my arms cuddling. He'll choose that over treats any day. Good luck with your new baby.
BTW chocolate is suppose to be poisonous to rabbits and I see so many people feeding it to them. For his sake, please resist the urge to give him that. Try dried cranberries (such as Oceanspray Craisins) in natural flavour. Mine go absolutely crazy for them. Raisins also are a nice treat.
