Some exercises that will make mom with baby
Outbreaks (supine)
The mother lies on her back with legs bent at 45 degrees. Meanwhile baby is in mother's arms, then we must raise the baby at the end of the arm. We then descend again at least ten times. Of course, it should be done as a game and baby will love!
Pumps (over babe)
The baby lies on his back, his mother moved over so as to be close to his face (he is perhaps best to start on the knees). The mother will come and give a kiss to baby by flexing the elbows laterally. Repeat ten to fifteen times.
Knee flexion (with baby)
Mom is standing with baby in her arms. It must bend the knees so squatting as low as possible, while keeping your back as straight as possible. His feet are shoulder width apart and she looks away.
