Ep 14 | Understanding Your Amazing Newborn's Senses and Reflexes

In this episode I dive into the fascinating world of newborns' senses and reflexes. From the importance of skin-to-skin contact to the delights of baby massage, I share valuable insights for new parents. Learn about your baby's vision preferences, the joy they find in hearing your voice, and the intriguing reflexes they exhibit from birth. Discover how these reflexes support your baby's development and why they gradually fade over time. I also emphasise the importance of cherishing these early weeks and months with your baby and encourage parents to seek guidance from healthcare professionals as needed. ⁠⁠⁠⁠Download Belinda's FREE Baby Bundle: ⁠⁠⁠⁠ ·  Checklists for baby equipment, hospital bag, nappy bag, travel & childcare bag ·  Newborn Sleep Flowchart-what to do next ·  Baby Feed & Sleep Tracker Web: ⁠⁠⁠⁠www.BelindaJoyce.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠@BelindaJoyceMidwife⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠@belinda_joyce_midwife⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠@belinda_joyce_midwife⁠⁠⁠⁠ If you've loved this podcast, never miss another one!
