There are 3 PARENTING MISTAKES that can affect your BABY’S BRAIN DEVELOPMENT

Neuroscience says that babies need 3Ts for their brains to grow.

But many times, because we are gripped by parenting peer pressure.

We try to do all kinds of other things to grow our baby’s brain.

And miss out on these 3 important Ts.

The first T is TALK

New parents, especially new moms are exhausted.
They are also judged a lot and loaded with lots of expectations.
They are criticized if their house is messy, they are criticized if their baby cries, they are criticized if they don’t look good, they are criticized if they don’t show their baby brain development flash cards.
They do everything they can to avoid criticism.
And this leaves them with no time and energy to talk to their baby.

But NEUROSCIENCE says brains are built by talking to babies.
Ignore all the criticism and start talking to your baby.

The second T is TUMMY TIME

Most new parents are afraid of infections and injuries – so they keep their babies far away from the floor.
But time on the floor is most important for brain development.

Tummy time builds neck control, facilitates exploration and also builds immunity.

Keep the floor clean. Watch your baby carefully during tummy time.
Then allow and encourage lots of tummy time.

The third T is Thumb Sucking

New parents, especially new moms are advised by every person they know, to prevent their baby from sucking their thumb.
If they listen to their instincts and allow thumb sucking – they are criticized and scolded.
Because of this they do not allow thumb sucking

But thumb sucking is important to build emotional regulation, motor skills and hand to eye coordination.

Remove the mittens and allow thumb sucking.

STOP LISTENING to OTHERS and damaging your baby’s brain.
They will later criticize you anyway when your baby cries and lot or walks or talks late

Type 3T and become part of the BRAIN DEVELOPMENT REVOLUTION by following the 3Ts no matter what anyone says.

Share this so that those who give wrong advice see it and realize what they are doing wrong.
