Massaging also helps in creating a great bond between the mother & the baby. Maybe at first, your baby won’t be comfortable with massage as it is a new Experience to them. It may take some time for them to enjoy that.
Baby’s behaviour is unpredictable when they are born. It takes almost 6 to 7 weeks for their mother to determine their behaviour and routines. So it is more recommended to use massaging oils when the baby is more than a month old.
