Close for Comfort - attachment, brain development, and babywearing
Manage episode 306396053 series 3003094
This is an episode about how carrying babies allows/helps carers to respond to them, keep them close, and regulate their systems. I talk to GP and sling expert Dr Rosie Knowles, antenatal teacher Bridget Supple, and mother/dedicated babywearer Amanda Leon Joyce.
In my conversation with Rosie, some interesting studies were mentioned:
The Anisfeld study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2245751/ Hunziker and Barr https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3517799/ The Mother Baby Bonding studies https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31877392/
