Unfortunately, a woman’s birthing experience is not always ideal. There are alot of possible complications that can occur with labor and delivery. If there is concern about the baby’s health or condition right after delivery the newborn is taken away from mom and that immediate post-birth bonding opportunity is lost. Though initially quite distressing a mom can accept that the baby’s condition needs to be addressed and managed first. The good news is that bonding with your baby is a longterm process, not one magical moment. There are also ups and downs along the way. As outlined in several of the other posts on our blog, activities such as “babywearing,” talking, reading and singing to your baby, and infant massage are wonderful opportunities to develop a beautiful start to a life-long relationship. Look for future posts that will have more infant massage clips.
