PARENTS OF NEWBORNS - Do you wonder if your baby loves you?
Your baby might not give you the feedback you need to show you they appreciate, need and love you. When you're exhausted after a long broken night, sometimes you need to know it's all worth it. You might question, do they even love me? 💙Especially in the first few weeks of life when babies cannot smile back, it can be hard to figure your baby out. Newborn babies know who is their carer and prefer you to others. Research has shown babies prefer the smell and sound of parents. 💙Babies understand that you know them better than anyone else. You probably don't have it all figured out yet, but you are the one trying to understand their cries, movements and expressions the most. They know this, and love you. 💙Each time you respond to your baby with a cuddle, meeting their needs of a nappy change, or feed, or talking to them with love they begin to understand the world and their place a little better, and they love you for that. 💙Trying your best shows them that you're on their side, and you help them out, and they love you. 💙From around 4-6 weeks babies will enjoy games and notice the world around them a little more, and when you sing to them, talk to them and stay curious to what is going on for them, they love you. 💙It can be really hard if you don't feel a rush of love for your baby, but it can take time to get to know each other. It's worth working on the relationship.

Need to calm down? Baby massage can be so calming for parents, as well as babies. We often find in our classes that the mood can start quite chatty as people arrive and we share how each person's week has been. It's nice to catch up with friends as part of the class and share parenting tips.

As you concentrate more on your baby, and the massage strokes we find the mood calms down, each parent tuning into the experience and their baby. Often mums say they feel relaxed and calmer at the end of a session too. As instructors we also love this slowing down in the day.

Our classes are starting up again in January, check out website for booking.
