Most of the learning that takes place in a baby's first month occurs with you – the mother or the primary caretaker. Baby is born with the basic cognitive tools that will help her survive outside the womb: the ability to remember your unique scent and voice and a set of reflexes that will help her thrive.
When your newborn looks at you, she quiets down, is more relaxed, listens intently to your voice and watches the movements of your lips. This simple interaction stimulates her brain to develop and grow.
Your newborn baby expands the use of her basic reflexes, the most obvious of which is the sucking reflex, and learns to adapt them to different situations to make them more efficient. For example, she adapts her sucking reflex depending on whether the nipple is a breast, bottle or pacifier.
