Abstract:
For many years, science told new parents that babies were “blank slates”, didn’t feel anything, and must not be touched. Research, though, has proven otherwise. This session will cover these historical theories as well as the theory of attachment and bonding. Discussing the physiological, neurobiological, and hormonal basis for love, the session will cover the prenatal to toddler stages of a young child’s life to discover the amazing changes in both the infant and maternal bodies to prepare for and reinforce bonding and attachment. To end, this session will touch on the birthing parent’s mental health and its effect on the infant.
