NEWBORN BABY 101 | How to take care of a newborn baby

A quick newborn baby 101 guide to looking after a newborn. I share how to resolve all the major newborn dilemmas: colic, reflux, gas, eczema, eye infections in newborns, cradle cap and more.

Having a newborn baby can feel overwhelming, especially as a first time mom. I've learned a lot between both my babies and I experienced basically everything under the sun in terms of newborn baby issues. It was a lot on myself as a first time mom and I didn't see much from others about the things I was dealing with. I remember thinking, "Why does my baby cry so much? Is this normal?" It felt really isolating. I don't want anyone to go through that, so I'm here to share what I've learned through my experience in hopes that it can help you through any struggles you may be dealing with as first time parents.

New moms out there! You are not alone. Being a first time mom comes with some anxieties! Don't be hard in yourself you got this!!

[prudencemckenzie]

After giving birth I had a wild panic, I forgot everything that I studied in preparatory courses, it seemed to me that any of my actions could harm my baby, but over time my anxiety has almost disappeared, so do not worry that you will not succeed, just in every action with the baby put love. And you will succeed.

I feel like i am going to be so emotional with everything!! He smiles, I'm going to weep, he cries, weep, breastfeeding, weeping, sleeping, I'm weeping lol.

Who else is watching this and doesn't have a baby :D

[SkainAfanger]

First time Dad here, my Son will be born in a few months. I'm still getting my head around the idea, however I'm doing some deep dives into parenting and this was very informative! I will re-watch closer to the time thank you!

[livinglifewithky]

Currently pregnant with my first. Your voice is soothing! I learned a lot from your video.

Beautiful baby boy, mine is coming in 3 weeks. They are a joy!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[jeaniedenton-smith]

Can we talk about how adorable this newborn is? Those long lashes!! 🥰

[lisacurtis]

I'm going to remember your videos when I become a grandmother. It's been a long time since I cared for an infant. Reminded me how important a routine is for babies. Also reminded me that it all goes by so fast! The days/nights are long, but the weeks and months are so short! Very well done.

Your voice is so soothing! I am expecting my third baby but haven’t had a newborn in my hands for over 6 years. Good to watch videos like this to refresh my memory and/or learn something new from other parents.

This is to every new mom, be strong, be happy and don't be too hard on yourself, it's a phrase. Love you.

[riccialove]

I just gave birth almost two weeks ago and everything is so overwhelming. Thank you for this video!! It’s very informative and helpful to me as a first time mom! Some days are better than others but you’re right i just have to reassess my expectations and take things day by day. ❤️

[aoifesmith]

Thank you so much for making this video, today my mum told me she was pregnant so I'm doing some research so I can help her as much as possible with the baby :)

[LadyInWhite]

It’s been 18 years between my 1st born and now my 2nd. (I was 20 and now 38) I forgot nearly everything!! So glad you posted videos like this, super helpful! Expecting our baby girl on Halloween 🎃 2022!!!

You are such a good mommy! I love it. It really warms my heart to see a mommy with such devotion to her babies, and the knowledge you've attained in caring for them. It's beautiful to see a woman fully embrace motherhood the way you have, and that you are sharing what you know with other women to help them in their journey. You are a blessing to this world.

Thanks mama! I’m on number 3 but find myself needing a reminder since it’s been 11 years
