Massaging Baby
Massage is very beneficial for your little one. Do not hesitate to practice it, from head to toe! With birth, Baby loses all the landmarks he had acquired when he was still cradled in his mother’s womb. The massage sessions will help him find these sweet sensations and discover his body. Very quickly, these sessions will become a privileged moment awaited between parents and toddlers …
Leg massage
Massage Baby’s leg from the top of the thigh to the ankle, first. Then reverse, bringing your hands from the foot to the groin.
Then place your hands on either side of the leg and perform “rolls” to activate blood circulation. Then switch to the other leg.
Foot massage
Massage the sole of Baby’s foot with your thumb, working your way up from the heel to the toes. Then massage each toe, one by one, the top of the foot and finally the ankle, making small circles with the fingers at the level of the bone.
Buttocks massage
Leave Baby lying on his back. Put your hands under her buttocks and make small circular movements to relax them.
Belly massage
Place your hands on Baby’s tummy and slide them, one after the other, doing the “water mill” movement.
You can also make circular movements, with your fingertips, around the navel.
