Holding newborns by the back and neck

Just relaxxxxx and you’ll get the hang of it. Keep your newborn swaddled so it’s more “sturdy” at the bottom and you can focus on the head/neck area. Our palms are big enough to secure a newborn’s head and neck so always make sure your palms are securing the baby’s neck and part of their head before you pick up the rest of the baby. Alternatively can pick baby up from bed, lift up the head and neck with one palm, slot your arms in, secure baby then pick baby up in carrying position. 😃 Breathe and trust yourself! 💪🏻
