A few tips to get us started:
1) Baby skin is super sensitive, so use mild, fragrance-free products and avoid harsh chemicals.
2) Don't be afraid to gently touch and handle your newborn's body - it's comforting for them! Gently massage their limbs and torso; just make sure you keep the room warm.
3) Keep a consistent bedtime routine - this helps both you and your baby! It'll aid in their cognitive development and also allows you to plan your day and nights.
4) Burp your baby after feeding - it's a simple but essential step to comfort them and avoid discomfort/spitting up.
5) For the first few months, consider investing in a baby monitor with an audio/video feed. It's reassuring, especially if you're step away for a moment or need some peace of mind.
6) Stock up on small, soft cloth diapers - they're useful for wiping up messes, and keeping baby cozy and clean.
7) Ask and seek advice from experienced parents and professionals - no question is too small! We all had to start somewhere, so don't hesitate to learn more about caring for your little one.
