As a new mom, you’re always searching for ways to calm, comfort, and bond with your baby. One of the most beautiful ways to do that is through daily baby massage.

Not only does it build emotional connection, but it also contributes to your baby’s physical and mental development. And guess what? You don’t need to be an expert to do it right.

✨ Step-by-Step Baby Massage Routine

1. Set the vibe: Choose a quiet, warm room. Dim the lights. Play soft music if needed.
2. Warm the oil: Take a few drops of Coco Crush Virgin Coconut Oil and rub between your palms.
3. Legs First: Use soft downward strokes from thighs to ankles. Repeat a few times.
4. Arms & Hands: Stroke from shoulders to palms and gently roll each finger.
5. Tummy: Use circular clockwise motions to support digestion and relieve gas.
6. Chest: Make gentle outward strokes from the center of the chest.
7. Back & Shoulders: Carefully turn the baby and stroke from neck to bottom.
8. Face & Head: Use minimal oil and light touches around the forehead, cheeks, and scalp.

💡 Best Time? After a warm bath or before bedtime. It calms your baby and promotes better sleep.

- Calms baby eczema, dryness, and rashes
- Gentle enough to use on the scalp, diaper area, and face
- So pure you could eat it—literally!
