Newborn Baby Massage

Baby Massage Tips
You don’t need to worry about fancy massage technique. Your baby will enjoy any caring touch. Feel free to make up your own strokes, doing each motion at least three times in each area.
As a general rule, up strokes are stimulating to the nervous system and down strokes are calming. Until your baby is six weeks old use only the down stroke technique, so as not to over stimulate your newborn. The legs are the least sensitive area of the body and a great place to start out your massage.
