Handling

Even though we are often unaware of it, every time we touch a baby, their perception of the new world they have been born into is affected. Touching the baby, moving and handling the baby during normal daily activities is a communication between the caregiver, the mother above all, and the baby.

Do you have questions? Are you confused? Do you get well-meaning advice from all sides - only - every piece of advice is different? Parents, grandparents, literature, the internet...
