Swaddling Baby

By creativity99 on  From akbar99.com
Swaddling Baby For Preemies You already know that babies far better during the first few months if they’re swaddled. This makes them feel more like they are in the womb, and it helps them to sleep better.

Developmental Post #18

By preemieparent on  From preemieparenting.blogspot.com
This developmental idea/project comes courtesy of my sister. She just had a baby (full term) and yesterday she was telling me about a little project she made for him. I thought it was a great idea that would work well for preemies so I wanted to share. As you probably know, when babies are small they can only see black and white. They like to look at high contrast pictures. Images such as checkerboards, circles, simple animal faces, etc. are a great way to keep a preemie interested and...Read Full Story
