Choosing the time of baby massage

Baby body massage should never be done on a full stomach. That is why the baby should not have it on an empty stomach because we all know that babies get a little irritable when they are hungry and when they are sleeping. So it is best if the baby can be started after one to one and a half hours of feeding. The best time for massage is 1/2 hour before shower or 1/2 hour before sleep at night. Make sure that the baby is calmer than usual because it is very important for the baby to be calm so that the baby can fully enjoy the massage. So if possible keep the TV off and if the child likes to listen to music, you can keep the music going at a low volume. Always try to keep the atmosphere of the room calm. You can also sing along with baby if you want. In general, you should do what the baby enjoys the most.
