How to bathe your baby
Bathing for the first time - Even if you were shown how to bathe your baby in hospital – perhaps even having your first go with a member of staff standing by – it can still be quite a daunting experience when you get home and have to do it yourself!
Establishing a bedtime routine
It may feel at first like you’ve not got much chance of getting a good night’s sleep, but teaching your newborn a good bedtime routine now will make the months to come much easier and less sleep deprived. By six months old, your baby should be able to sleep through the night without a feed, so from six to eight weeks in you can begin getting them into a routine which will help your newborn learn to sleep at night.
Routine
Some mums and dads worry that if they respond too quickly when their baby cries they'll spoil them. However, research shows that babies who are responded to quickly actually cry less as toddlers.
