With my first baby, I followed all the typical advice—swaddles, pacifiers, convenient car seat so I didn’t have to pick them up… But as a (former) pediatric occupational therapist- working in early intervention for over a decade I realized those things were working against my baby’s natural development. By my second, I knew better. I skipped the swaddle, avoided pacifiers, and prioritized movement. And the difference? Amazing! My next babies moved sooner and became incredibly strong, happy, coordinated, & quickly independent. Not because I forced them to…but because I knew how to help their brain grow! Most parents don’t realize a baby’s brain grows the fastest in the First 12 Weeks ( Harvard proved it!). But this window doesn’t wait. What you do now shapes their development for months to come. If you’re expecting or have a newborn, this is your chance to start now. Drop “NEWBORN” in the comments. I’ll send you my exact method so you can do this right—your baby’s development won’t pause. Start sooner, not later! Infant massager @getkahlmi #newborn #firsttimemom #babymusthaves #babyregistry #nesting #explorepage #viral #babybrain #thirdtrimester #babyshower
