8 weeks
The second growth spurt is at 8 weeks, when the baby makes all sorts of funny and grimacing faces, discovers his little hands and starts using them, controls his body position and observes shapes of objects, for example, silhouettes in front of a stronger lights.
At this stage ️the breast will also be for calming, not only a source of food, ️it starts to put his hand / fist in his mouth, ️the baby can get bored quite quickly, but at the same time he can play alone for a short time.
We can help him by offering the pacifier, by diversifying the activities, we can show him the rattling toys at different distances, we can do all kinds of exercises with his hands and feet and most importantly he may fall asleep harder and need more time to soothe and put the baby to sleep.
Moms, keep calm, Dads, help moms as much as possible.
