* Be aware of your importance in the life of your baby: it needs your comfort and your protection.
Here are some ways to establish a warm relationship with your baby. Do not worry if you feel uncomfortable at first:
* Hold your baby against you and talk to him in an affectionate tone of what he does or what you do. Tighten the cons and you give him little kisses.
* Try to sing him a song or tell him a story. You choose the air or the tale … Be yourself, your baby will love it!
* Find games. For example, hide your face, then show it to him suddenly saying: “Hi! ”
