And,that everything you -- or anyone -- says, feels, and does in the presence of a laboring and birthing newborn will be literally absorbed by the baby? Remembered by the baby? Being called "pumpkin", "Oh, my what a big girl you are", and others impact a baby. I am working on a piece of video where the nurse repeatedly rubs the baby's foot and ribs to get him to cry WHILE making goo-goo high pitched perky sounds .... what kind connections are being made during birth when the baby hears only strangers doing their job and saying unconscious things and incongruent things. The rough handling of the baby at birth have to do with high incidence of sensory integration issues and life long parenting concerns?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the comment.Baby Keeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13771156154070579302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37709909.post-63887862620451875182008-02-25T06:46:00.000-06:002008-02-25T06:46:00.000-06:00Many of us nurses do think a lot about how the bab...Many of us nurses do think a lot about how the baby feels. We talk to them when they get out. I tell the mother and father to notice the facial expression when the baby comes out. Most babies look at me like "hey lady, did you get the number of that truck that hit me?" And they must have a killer head ache after being squeezed for hours.pinkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00198277802918823591noreply@blogger.com
