Hi, My daughter was a preemie, so this news initially made me sad. But get this: The premature babies who had an increased amount of gentle touch from their parents and/or NICU caregivers actually responded more strongly to gentle touch than the premature babies who weren't touched or held as often. So I guess all those hours I spent every day rocking my newborn baby girl in the chair next to her incubator paid off. Which, according to lead researcher Dr. Nathalie Maitre, is proof that gentle, supportive touch can actually help brain development. Please help. Thanks! I didn't find the right solution from the Internet. References: www.parents.com/baby/all-about-babies/science-proves-you-cant-hold-your-baby-too-much/Online Promotional Advertising Examples

Hi Jensen, I think you are really doing a great job! Especially for fathers it is sometimes hard to get a real connection to their children when they are still babies and even more when the baby has to be in an incubator for some time. When we had our first baby my partner didn't really know how to hold her and he was scared he would hurt her, when he was touching her once she got home but I guess this is also a first time mum/dad thing in general. When we had our second child we for sure were way more experienced! I think one thing what also made a huge difference was that with my first baby I was exclusively breastfeeding and with our second we very soon switched to breast feeding and formula feeding in addition. This was the result out of some health issues on my side and I wasn't happy about this at all at the beginning. The positive aspect however was that my (now) husband also got a chance to feed our baby love and we took care of finding an organic and high quality formula ( myorganicformula.com/collections/hipp-organic-formula) so our baby wouldn't miss anything. I still love watching him sitting on the couch, having our baby on his naked skin and feed her. Touching and caring and the touch of skin is very important for the development of your baby! I also like the parents.com link a lot! Good luck for your family's future, Jessica
