18 Cosas que tu Bebé Está Intentando Decirte

Babies communicate before they speak. This video explains the 18 body language cues babies use to express hunger, satiety, pain, tiredness, overstimulation, and attachment, based on the work of T. Berry Brazelton, Harvey Karp, John Bowlby, and Mary Ainsworth. What will you learn in this video? Before crying, your baby is already communicating with you. The Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale, developed by T. Berry Brazelton, documented that newborns produce organized prelinguistic cues that precede crying. Harvey Karp identified neonatal behavioral states and the cues that precede them. John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth established that certain body language responses—complete muscle relaxation, cessation of crying in response to a specific voice—are observable indicators of developing secure attachment. This video translates that research into practical language for parents.
