@probablyshelby_: A light massage behind their ears while they’re sitting on your lap! Something about being relaxed 🤷🏻♀️ #nicutricks #nicumama #nicurn #preemie
Yes!! NICU nurse here. Sometimes they tense up their muscles after being pat on the back. If you stop every so often and rub their head, they relax and let out a huge burp

This seems more relaxing for the baby instead of patting their backs ❤️I am definitely going to try this with my little one

My 7 week old loves his head being rubbed after he eats. It puts him in a little trance
