Bonding with our babies

Great tips from the article. I strongly advocate point 5.

"
You cannot spoil a baby. In fact, the more you bond with your baby now, the more they will learn to trust you. If your child feels secure in his/her attachment to you, he/she will more likely grow up to be a more independent adult.
"

1. Spend as much time during the very early days after your child is born allowing for skin-to-skin contact.

2. Talk and sing to your baby.

3. Make eye contact with your baby.

4. Make sure you and your partner are the main people who take care of feeding your baby.

5. Respond to your baby's needs. (You cannot spoil a baby! )
