Instructor,
My child loves the massage & he likes seeing the babies on the video. After feeding at night, I give him a massage, then Dad gives a bath, then Christopher is out like a light.
It took us 5 years to have our baby of 3 months. We went through IVF to have him. The massage makes me feel even closer to him. I feel like I'm doing something great for my child.
