Massage not only relaxes your baby but also strengthens her muscles and leads to good sleep. It has several other benefits too. There is a correct way of massaging infants which should be followed for maximum benefit. Massage should not be given immediately after feeding or if she’s tired and feeling sleepy. The baby will be more willing and co-operative if you tune in the massages as per her moods and you will not have to struggle. Considering massage at the same time each day is good (as baby knows what to expect) but may not always work with these little ones.
Some simple tips to massage a baby-
You need to look for signs that tell you which stroke your baby likes and till when she wants to be massaged. If she cries, that means she’s telling you that she’s had enough for the day. If on a given your baby is being cranky and uncomfortable, try applying light pressure. If you end up struggling even after that, skip the day and give the baby a break!
