The Science Behind Baby Development
Nurture and nature coalesce in the first few months of life as your baby undergoes remarkable transformations. As you navigate through challenges like colic or constipation that might keep you awake at night, understanding typical behaviors provides comfortacknowledging that while every infant is unique, there are stages they should be mastering.
The four pillars of infant development:
Eat: Feeding practices that promote a comfortable and efficient latching process, ensuring the baby can breastfeed or bottle-feed without excessive r intake or strn.
Sleep: The ability to self-soothe, adapt to various sleeping positions, develop a regular sleep cycle within weeks, and stretch through longer stretches of sleep.
Poop: A smooth digestion process with minimal gas discomfort, regular bowel movements frequency can vary but should be multiple times dly, and ease during elimination without distress.
MotorFoundation: Steady head and neck control, tracking objects with eyes, smiling upon hearing your voice, opening and closing hands, reaching them to the mouth, and engaging in tummy time.
