Why Your Baby Needs Breaks From Stimulation

Babies process a lot of information every day.
New sounds, movements, faces, and sensations all require effort from their developing brain.

Quiet moments allow your baby to organize these experiences.
During rest, the brain strengthens connections and integrates what has already been learned.

This is true before birth as well.
Periods of calm in your body give your baby space to regulate their own system.

After birth, simple moments like lying quietly, cuddling, or looking around without interaction help your baby reset.

Constant stimulation is not necessary for healthy development.
Balance is.
