Great link for orientation of all prospective parents.
It's very hard for me.
A father taking care of a 6 week old. I'm learning every day.

Good job dadio🤘stay strong
This is a helpful video but put something in there for dads too.. 👍🏽
Except for the nursing part, every part of the video could pertains to fathers; babystep.tv just happened to use females... smdh 🙄
I'm 28 weeks pregnant and can't wait for cuddles!
I have a one month old and Damn i miss sleep. Get as much as possible lol and congrats !
@@nikkykey59 you can't accumulate much sleep, so this advice is pretty useless. Sleep when your baby sleeps and get used to it. It gets better around second or third month when they get to sleep for 5-6 hours in one go.
@@jakovd easier said. I dont like a dirty house so when she sleeps i take time to eat clean and pump her a bottle she has a latch problem. So every situation is different. I would love to sleep when she sleeps doesnt always go that way
If you feel like you do not want to hold your baby or the thought gives you anxiety. You might have PPD (postpartum depression) or PPA (postpartum Anxiety). This is the first baby I have had that I have enjoyed being with. This is also the first baby I have had that I chose not to breastfeed. It’s not talked about but breastfeeding can bring on PPD or PPA. I’m thankful I get to enjoy this one. I love all my children immensely, it just feels like a special treat to be able to go through the first year without those thoughts and feelings of negativity.
I had no idea breastfeeding caused that. Why dont more people talk about this??
Where are the fathers in this video? It's very bizzare and presumptuous to assume that its only the womans responsibility to care for babies/kids. Both parents, inclidimg the father, are both capable and responsible for providing many aspects of parenting; providing nourishment, education, love, care, encouragement.. etc.
laura tea The mother gets maternity leave during this time (if available) and a child this young should be with their mother the majority of the time.
Team Queen’ s Fearn Tucker and Bentley Forever Fathers matter a lot to a child’s development. Children with both parents in their lives grow up to be more successful statistically. And young babies should get skin on skin and 1 hour of interaction with their fathers a day. However, mom should do most of the work since the baby is more familiar with her, and it’s important for bonding.
Team Queen’ s Fearn Tucker and Bentley Forever Just cause you got daddy issues doesn’t mean a father isn’t necessary. I doubt your dad gave you 1 hour of interaction and skin on skin contact when you were a newborn.
Obviously since you hate men lol

Very helpful ✔💖💖💖
Thank you I keed this in mind
iam going to try this
Interesting video... “respect” for an infant is a different concept I haven’t heard before. If you place a toy in their hand is there something wrong with them dropping it out of disinterest?
I would have been interested in seeing more about tummy time...
nice
Pray for me. Think I never put my baby down.
Quadavia Chambers lol I don’t either but I’ve been trying to lately because I’ll be going back to work in a few weeks and I need to get some stuff done around my home.
It’s soooo hard not to hold him

This was a good white balancing tutorial. Sort of a what not-to-do 101.
But seriously, good parenting information.
Thanks
How come these mums arnt lifting the baby with support to their heads ... answer me someone
Because you only need to do that with newborns. All the 1-month olds are having the heads supported, the 4 month olds don't need it.
They are but you can't really see it, it's enough to prop two fingers on the back of their heads when picking them up. Some newborns don't need it though.
Most drs want the baby to be able to hold there own head up at around a month old. Also in small doses, like when picking them up to move them or when dressing them, its fine.
Hmm interesting and informative, but why is there no mention of dads? Just mothers? Feels very one-sided. I'll just not spend any time with my kid eh. Got nothing to do with me..
Women are typically the caretakers but everything in this video can be applied to men. Its not one-sided, you don't need a video with a dad demonstrating to realize that the information in the video is good for dads too, do you?
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Glad you liked our video! :) Stay tuned for more!!!
My baby doesn’t make different sounds, he just screams at the top of his lungs.
😂
Because your baby is normal
has it gotten better? (please say yes)
Bananas yes he has. He is 18 months now it got better at about 6 or 7 months
The activity bar in the first clip.. what is it called???
Vanna G LEKA Baby Gym-IKEA Hope I’m not too late to answering your question. 🙂
@@minimalistthrifter4987 thanks!
Very thorough video. Thank you 💖
Sounds like you are training little Phoenix to be OCD... So orderly, so clean, so harmonious... ;)
Racism on the internet?? Do other's know about this?
All Mexican's, eh? You've been in all Mexican's homes? That's quite an accomplishment.
Its good for children to learn routine and to be clean as early as possible. Plus theres really no reason not to teach your kid that everything has a place to go.
😂😂😂
Newborn can’t see colorful colors the first few weeks
New born is joy
Sooooo..... What do dads do during this time? Go back to work?
You do exactly what the mother is doing? Quite simple.
Funny how sexism seems to only work one way huh
you guys need to shut up... this is highly useful for fathers as well. There is much sexism against men in the world, but not here.
LMAO
Team Queen’ s Fearn Tucker and Bentley Forever This one does 😉
I don't even have a baby nor am I expecting one aha great vid though
Its been harped on by other commentators but seriously, it is highly offensive that not once is it offered in respect that a father can also be involved. I am a highly devoted father. Bet whoever made this wouldn't appreciate it if I made a video about supporting a family and didnt once mention that a woman can have a job outside of the kitchen. Smh
alextrose7 0-3 months mothers usually have maternity leave where as the father goes back to work and is not home all day. Mothers generally take on the caretaker role first for the simple reason that in the beginning, they have time off from work and can devote all their time to the baby. A good father shouldn’t need a video specifically directed towards them to realize this is all things you can do when you have time with your child.
@@logandanae8692 doesn't have to be directed at me, it should for the sake of sexual equality like you women love so much, at least mention a father ONE TIME. So like I said, would you appreciate a video that suggested you weren't worth mentioning as it concerns providing for a family simply because you're a woman? I know strong women who don't take maternity leave to the fullest because they have a good man who works with them to build a schedule in which the baby is always with a parent. That is the type of relationship I am in and I couldn't respect my woman more for the things she does and she was just as offended at this video for its lack of mentioning the role of a father in all of this. So stop being pretentious you precious feminist wannabe, I have every right to feel the way I do about this and for you to say that I shouldn't be insulted and a good father wouldn't be is ridiculous. Your man might allow you to push him down beneath you but dont presume to do it with me lady. You clearly think that gender equality means women get full power and the men must submit, that's problem with you fake feminists. You give the truly strong women, who aren't afraid to acknowledge a mans role because they aren't intimidated by it, a bad name.
alextrose7 bro I got as far as “you women” and stopped. I surely hope if you have sons they don’t take after you
@@alextrose7 you are 100% right about everything you mentioned. Of course most of this video, a side from the breastfeeding can be applied to men as well. But that's not the point. They didn't include any men at all. And you are right, if it were a video about financially providing for the child that only included men, I personally would be offended as a woman. All too often "feminism" seems to only flow one way and doesn't really seem to be about true equality.
@@logandanae8692 exactly you stopped. I'm talking about the type of women that this one who thinks men should keep their mouths shut is a part of. If you read all of what I said I expressed how much I respect women who arent sp intimidated by mens opinions that they'd rather not hear them.
What does the mirror do on the floor?
Nirvan Calayag I’m assuming so the baby can see itself
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
To the men complaining about there being no male parent representation, first I would like to point out that this is how women have felt about mainstream media for decades. Secondly, this is just some low budget video; so, realize that although they were careful to say “caregivers” rather than “moms” to be inclusive, they probably couldn’t find any single dad actors.
great tips! but why only baby boys? lol!
First off all babies are different they don’t just make cute little sounds when they are hungry they definitely let you know. You can never hold your baby to much . When they are a little older they let you know they want to be put down. This video makes it seem like babies are so easy and cute and just play and laugh. Haha funny.i love my kids more than anything but the truth the first couple months suck sorry it’s true.
So many bad comments I don’t feel like watching anymore
First baby is 6 months. My baby is 6 days......
Dad help new moms by playing with your babies.
YOU SAID BABY NATHAN UNCONSCIOUSLY ABSORBS INFORMATION! DON'T YOU MEAN SUBCONSCIOUSLY?!!?
Satoshi NakaYolo Actually unconscious is the right word to use. Psychologically speaking Freud said that you have your conscience, your unconscious, and your preconscious. No subconscious.
Agreed
Unconsciously is correct
No.
Learn proper grammar.
1.what about the good daddies out there that do all of this too like my husband?
2.all babies and families are different and how they want to interact with their baby is fine as long as the baby is happy
3.this sounds like a manual and babies don't come with manuals so do whatever you think is best for ur baby and don't think ur a bad parent for not following these "rules"
I don't think a baby is going to understand or care about what respect is for a while. xD
ButterflyFam yes they will, because it’s a feeling that they can feel from you. If you are treated in a disrespectful manner, does that not stir up confusion/fear/sadness/worry? Respect is shown non verbally & verbally, via body language, tone of voice & eye contact. Either way they will feel it. Sorry why make your baby feel disrespect when you can just show respect? Cz trust me, that’s the only way they’ll learn to be respectful.
Lol for real, babies don't understand respect. They're unable to comprehend the emotions they're feeling. Its as stupid as asking your babies permission to change their diaper.
TBC ShrOOm that’s stupid as not knowing the difference between respect and consent. Respect is in everything we do, not just say. You can either talk to your baby in a soothing and reassuring manner whilst changing their diaper, or, you can say nothing, rip of their clothes quickly, do it all silently and coldly. One is with respect and the other isn’t. They don’t need to understand the words you say, they can feel you.
@@soukybird9274 respecting my baby would mean never changing his diapers because he hates it no matter how I talk to him. By respecting his 6 week old wishes I wouldn't do most of the things I need to do for him because he hates laying down, he hates laying on his stomach, he hates being changed, he hates being dressed, he hates bathing. I respect him enough to do these things whule acknowledging the fact that he doesn't fully understand what he wants or needs. He doesn't understand that what I'm doing is in his best interest.
You don't seem to understand the difference between an emotional response and a sensational response because all a baby can feel is wrapped up in their senses and nothing more. He can't put a name to something he doesn't understand and obviously neither can you.
TBC ShrOOm truly sad that you think that. Showing respect doesn’t mean negligence. You can still meet all a baby’s needs including the ones they don’t like with respect. Doesn’t mean they’ll magically like it. You can choose to change his diapers respectfully or not. Respect doesn’t mean fulfilling their wishes. Respect is REGARD for the feelings, wishes, or rights of others. Good luck. Listen, I’m sure a decent mother, however if you truly think the only thing a baby feels is their senses, then you’re in for a shock the older and emotional he becomes ❤️ take care x
I guess this video was made for rich people.... Cos i cant afford alll this toys and a big space like this
Items Adobea Amponsah thank you I feel like a bad mom for not being able to do all this
I don't have the money either but can still make a space for my child. Their are mirrors identical to the one that is horizontal on the ground for 5 bucks at Wal-Mart. These videos are made to be pretty and to make you feel bad but poor people love their babies just as much as the next. We are on all the government assistance their is but my children are homeschooled and all advanced. You don't need a lot of money to make smart, happy and loved children.
im about to be a new dad and this is stupid aaaa thank ya very much
In the video, they recommend keeping a few toys in sight so you don’t overstimulate the infant. Creating space is just a matter of decluttering. During playtime, you can move your coffee table to the side to create space for the baby. There’s also grass outdoors. Or maybe you can take them to library during Story Time and there’s plenty of space for crawling. Even the hallway of your home can be utilized, just put a playmat and have a basket of toys. Check out Books at the library and buy toys at the thrift store. Even cheaper just play with muffin tin, toilet paper roll, Tupperware, blanket and the classic peek a boo. The baby won’t be able to tell the difference between fancy toys and specific created space. But both can still experience the same way of helping develop their brain.
“Comparison Is the Thief of Joy.” -Theodore Roosevelt
It’s not about the space it’s about how to communicate with your baby and how to play with them they don’t care if you hang a string attached with anything they will follow it
Why all the babies in this video seem like actors 😜
Everytime the child is actually concentrating the "mom's" would take the item away from them. 🤦🏽♀️ The exact opposite of what the voice over is saying.
Hey, could you provide feedback on this video please: czcams.com/video/ay8mXjVWc04/video.html
Poor Dad :(
MakeNoMistake_MyNameIsJeff why poor Dad?
In some places of India...babies are not allowed to see mirror till they get their milk teeth.
Why would anyone dislike this video 🙄
"Offering toys instead of putting them in his hands shows respect." This is an absurd statement. Also, is this some feminist utopia where men don't exist? The words "father" and "men" were never mentioned.
1:00 wait doesn't baby just drink milk from moms breast?

Kissing the baby’s lips is NOT a healthy practice.

Sounds like dad doesn't have anything to do with the baby... wow
AmidalaCdSK the video is called parenting tips just because it was women doing the demonstration you think that means dad's cannot also use the Information?you need a man to demonstrate it to you so you know dad's can also put a mirror infront of their baby?
Jade Christie the question is, is the man supposed to do the same or is there other special tips and tricks. You know, we think differently.
Jade Christie but good point still :)
Jade Christie 😆
AmidalaCdSK my dad wasn’t there much when I was a baby. My babies dad won’t be there at all.. so.. I guess it’s not really straying from the truth
