Understanding the Vital First Moments of
your Newborn Baby
Times Have Changed!
Due to advancements in medical technology, we now have a better understanding of just how important the first moments of our babies lives are, and how much these moments can have an impact for the rest of their lives.
The following will contribute to your baby’s well-being long into the future!
Immediate Skin-To-Skin Contact
Immediate skin-to-skin contact has proven to do the following:
Regulates the baby’s heartbeat, temperature, and breathing.
Calms the baby down and helps prepare them for breastfeeding.
Increases the release of hormones that aid with breastfeeding.
Aids in contracting the mother’s uterus and speeds up recovery.
Skin-to-skin contact is beneficial long after the baby is taken home from the hospital as well, and should be practiced by both parents!
Breastfeeding Health And Nutritional Benefits
Breastfeeding has numerous health and nutritional benefits, including the following:
Breast milk contains natural chemicals which help fight off viruses and diseases.
It reduces the risk and severity of certain allergies.
It can aid in neurological development.
Breastfeeding is a great bonding experience for a mother and her baby.
However, breastfeeding is not always the right choice for every parent. To learn more about the pros and cons of breastfeeding vs. bottle feeding, click here.
Communicating With Your Newborn Baby
Communicating with your baby is incredibly important, and doesn’t have to be done with just words.
Smiling at them, pointing things out to them, and holding them are all important forms of communication that your baby can understand, at least on a subconscious level.
