1. Create a quiet, warm and comfortable environment: keep the room temperature suitable and avoid irritating noise and strong light. You can choose light music or white noise to help your baby relax.
2. Wash your hands and keep them clean: Please wash your hands before touching them to ensure that your baby will not be exposed to any bacteria or viruses.
3. Use appropriate touch oil or emulsion: Choose a touch oil or emulsion specially designed for babies. These products are usually mild and contain no irritating ingredients. Before use, test on a small area of skin to ensure that the baby has no allergic reaction.
4. Start a gentle touch: gently touch the baby's skin with warm fingers, starting from the head and then gradually moving down to the arms, legs and feet. Use gentle touch to avoid pressing or rubbing your baby's skin hard.
5. Make eye contact with your baby: It is very important to make eye contact with your baby during stroking. This can build intimacy and trust, and also help the baby's emotional development.
6. Use the correct posture: You can choose to put your baby on a soft mat or put your hand under your baby's body to provide support. Make sure that your posture is comfortable and will not bring discomfort or stress to your baby.
7. Pay attention to the baby's reaction: It is very important to observe the baby's reaction. If the baby shows signs of dislike or discomfort, such as crying, struggling or avoiding touching, please stop touching and try other methods to appease the baby.
8. Respect your baby's rhythm: Every baby has his own rhythm and preferences. Some babies may like frequent touching, while others may like quiet and alone time. Respect your baby's needs and adjust the time and frequency of touching according to your baby's performance.
In short, touching the baby is an intimate interactive way, which can promote the baby's emotional development and physical health. Every baby is unique, please adjust the way and time of touching according to your own and your baby's needs.
