Hi! And welcome if you just subscribed to this newsletter. We’re so happy to have you here!

Today, let's talk about a gentle and effective way to connect with your baby: baby massage. This simple practice can soothe your baby and strengthen your bond.

Here are a few reminders to guide you:

Set the Scene: Choose a quiet, warm room where you and your baby can relax. Lay a soft blanket or towel on a flat surface for your baby to lie on.

Use Gentle Pressure: Always use a light, gentle touch. You can use a baby-safe oil or lotion to help your hands glide smoothly over your baby’s skin.

Follow a Routine: Start with your baby’s legs, gently stroking from the thighs down to the feet. Move to the arms, chest, and back using slow, soothing motions. Pay attention to your baby's cues and adjust your pressure and speed as needed.

Communicate and Engage: Talk or sing to your baby during the massage. Eye contact and a calm voice can enhance the soothing effect and create a deeper connection.

Timing is Everything: Choose a time when your baby is calm and content, such as after a bath or before bedtime. Avoid massaging your baby right after feeding or when it is hungry or cranky.

Baby massage can help with relaxation, better sleep, and even digestion. It’s a wonderful way to nurture your baby and build a loving bond.
