In this episode of 'Mothering from Within,' I explore the intricacies of birth from a baby's perspective, highlighting the challenges and resilience inherent in the journey through the birth canal. I chat about how a baby's birth story influences their early functioning, from feeding and sleeping to overall comfort and shed light on the physical processes during birth. Then I move on to discussing 'life after birth' for babies!  You'll learn why babies are so dependent on you, as their special adult, and why closeness and attachment are so important (and not a bad habit). This episode serves as a guide for new mothers to understand their babies' experiences, advocating for informed, intuitive parenting and the support of gentle therapies to foster early development and well-being.00:00 Welcome to Mothering from Within01:11 The Journey of Birth from a Baby's Perspective07:29 Understanding Baby's Post-Birth World09:30 Embracing the Fourth Trimester11:38 The Magic of Craniosacral Therapy15:23 Wrapping Up with Love and RecommendationsStay in Touch With KailiKaili's WebsiteKaili's InstagramWorried your baby has some body tightness or tension?  Click here to grab my free Baby Body Bliss Guide to assess your baby at home and get started with some tips on how to help release that tension.Ever wished for a magic wand to help you understand what’s biologically normal for your baby?
