Relaxing with motion? Because babies know what’s good for them!

As a new parent, you are likely experiencing the overwhelming joy and love that comes with having a baby. However, you might also be experiencing the exhaustion and stress that comes with caring for a newborn. One of the biggest challenges for new parents is getting their baby to stop screaming. Babies are known for their love of being in motion. Whether it's in a car, a stroller, or being rocked in someone's arms, babies find comfort and relaxation in the gentle swaying and rocking movements. But it can be exhausting for parents to rock their little angle to sleep.

There is a solution! And there are also very good reasons why babies love being in motion so much. So keep on reading!

Movement is reminiscent of the womb

Babies spend nine months in the womb, where they are constantly surrounded by movement. As their mother moves around, the baby is gently rocked and swayed, creating a sense of comfort and security. When babies are born, they are suddenly thrust into a world that is still and quiet, which can be unsettling. Being in motion can help recreate the feeling of being in the womb, which can be soothing and calming for babies.

It helps them fall asleep faster

There are phases where it is difficult to get the little one to sleep, but many parents find that motion can help. The gentle rocking and swaying can help lull babies into a state of relaxation, making it easier for them to fall asleep. This is especially true for babies who are colicky or have trouble settling down.

It can aid in digestion

Babies are prone to digestive issues. Colic is not unusual in the world of babies. Sleeping in motion can help aid in digestion by keeping the baby's body in a slightly upright position. Additionally, the gentle movements can help move gas and other digestive issues through the baby's system, reducing discomfort and fussiness.

There are many reasons why babies love to be in motion. From recreating the feeling of the womb to aiding in digestion, the gentle rocking and swaying can be incredibly soothing and calming for babies. So the next time you're struggling to get your little one to calm down, try rocking them gently in your arms.
