How Massage Affects Your Baby

Your baby, as you may expect, feels what you do and shares all of your experiences.

When you become stressed, your baby also becomes stressed and agitated. Of course, when you become relaxed, as during a massage, your baby also shares in the same endorphins, becoming soothed and relaxed. It has been noticed that most babies born to women who received regular weekly or semi-monthly massages are often calmer, have sweeter dispositions, gain weight faster, have less colic and sleep better than those from non-massaged mothers.
