As a new mum, have you ever felt like your newborn is trying to tell you something—but you just can’t figure out what? You’re feeding, changing, and soothing them, yet sometimes they still seem unsettled, and you’re left wondering, what am I missing?
The truth is, your newborn is constantly communicating with you, even before they cry. Their tiny movements, facial expressions, and subtle gestures are all newborn cues that give you valuable insight into what they need. Learning to recognize these signals can help you respond with confidence and make parenting feel so much easier.
In this episode of First Time Mum’s Chat, I’m here to help you decode your newborn’s cues, so you can meet their needs before they become distressed. Trust me, spotting these early signals will make a huge difference in reducing fussiness, improving bonding, and making those early months much smoother for both of you.
Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen
When you understand your newborn’s cues, you can meet their needs more quickly and effectively—before the crying starts! For example, did you know that rooting, sucking on hands, and lip-smacking are early hunger cues? Or that arching their back or pulling their legs up could mean gas or discomfort? Recognizing these signals early can help you avoid stress and make life so much easier.
I’ll also share real-life experiences from my work as a childcare educator and baby massage instructor to help you feel more confident in recognizing your baby’s unique signals. The more you tune into these newborn cues, the stronger your connection with your baby will become.
