Did I do something wrong by holding my brothers baby when it was crying?

Hello! The reason I’m asking this is because I am autistic and he seemed upset with me and I would like to know why, but I’m feeling very intimidated and don’t want to ask him yet.

I’m 15. I’m staying at my brother’s house for a day or two due to my houses AC being broken. Tonight, his baby started crying, she’s about one years old. I was worried she had soiled herself or something was wrong so I went to check on her, I picked her up (she stopped crying) and somewhat checked to see if she needed a changed diaper (even though the last time I changed I diaper I was 8 years old) and it seemed fine. When I set her back down she began crying again. I didnt want her crying to wake up my brother and his girlfriend. I thought that since my sleep schedule was flipped it would be acceptable to comfort her until she fell back asleep. I simply walked around the babies room with her for a few minutes, she immediately stopped crying. After a while he came in and seemed to be a little upset to me (I could be wrong as I have a hard time telling tones apart)I said “she was crying” and gave her to him because I assumed he would want to take over, he then said nothing and took her into his and his gfs room. Please help me understand!!

Please help me understand!!

Edit: hello! My brother woke me this morning, he wasn’t upset in the slightest. I think it was exactly what some of you said , he was just tired and I misread the tone. Thanks for the advice !

Second Edit: I’m a female and was AFAB, haha it’s not a big deal just letting people know

This is the end

I’ve taken x20 my prescribed dosage, please give me stories to read so I feel less alone.

Thanks everyone for the kind words, but it doesn’t change anything. It’s taking too long for my personal likeness so I’m going to take some of my mother’s medication while she’s asleep and then watch jojo’s bizarre adventure. My friend called 911, so I’m hoping by the time they get here I’m gone so I don’t have to deal with the embarrassment.

I don't go to therapy, and I've been posting here as a way to word vomit and just get my thoughts out. I feel almost guilty for posting on here so much because I feel like I'm putting myself in harm's way even more with how many ppl dm request me, and honestly, sometimes I reply, and we talk, and then I feel weird and block them. Writing this at 2 in the morning because it's been keeping me up. Sometimes I think it would be better for me to be banned from this community so I don't have the chance to post here and expose myself to creeps.
