Rock-A- Bye- Baby

Rock- A - Bye - Baby - Sleep 101

​Infant massage is a practice that has been used for centuries to promote relaxation, bonding, and better sleep in babies. The gentle touch and rhythmic motions of an infant massage can help soothe and calm a fussy baby, making it easier for them to fall asleep. Here are a few tips for incorporating infant massage into your bedtime routine:
  1. Choose a quiet, comfortable place to massage your baby, free from distractions and interruptions.
  2. Use gentle, slow strokes and focus on your baby's arms, legs, tummy, and back.
  3. Incorporate lullabies or soft music to create a calming atmosphere.
  4. Avoid massaging your baby right before bedtime as this may stimulate them instead of calming them.
  5. Consider using baby-friendly oils or lotions to enhance the experience and moisturize your baby's skin.
Remember, every baby is different and what works for one may not work for another. The key is to be patient, gentle, and responsive to your baby's cues. If they seem uncomfortable or fussy during the massage, stop and try again another time. Infant massage can be a wonderful way to help your baby relax and sleep better, and is also a great opportunity for you to bond with your little one.
