The negative effects of touching your baby
1. Interfere with your baby's sensory development: Touching your baby may overstimulate your baby's brain, causing your baby's sensory development to be disturbed. In the process of growing up, babies need to understand the world through their own tactile sensations and explorations, and random touching may prevent babies from gaining independent perception and experience.
2. Affect the baby's sense of security: Touching the baby will disrupt the baby's daily routine, making the baby feel uneasy and confused. Your baby's routine is essential for their physical and mental development, and a stable environment and regular routine can help your baby build a sense of security and trust.
3. Damage to the parent-child relationship: Touching the baby may make the baby feel uncomfortable and stressed, which in turn affects the parent-child relationship with the parents. Babies need to be loved and protected by their parents, and touching them can make them question and feel uneasy about their parents' trust.
Parents should remember the principle of "three touches and five don'ts".
