What should novice parents do if they can't hold the baby?
Novice parents may feel unskilled or nervous about holding a baby, but here are some suggestions:

1. Learn the correct baby holding posture: You can learn the correct baby holding posture by watching videos, reading books or consulting experienced parents. Make sure your baby's head and neck are supported, and hold your baby's hips and back with your arms and palms.

2. Practice holding the baby: More practice can help novice parents get familiar with the posture and skills of holding the baby. You can ask your family or friends to provide you with opportunities to practice, or find a safe place at home to do simulation exercises.

3. Seek help: If novice parents still find it difficult, they can seek professional help, such as pediatricians, nurses or professional parenting instructors. They can provide more specific advice and guidance to help novice parents learn the correct skills of holding their babies.

4. Use auxiliary tools: Some baby stores provide specially designed auxiliary tools for holding babies, such as baby straps and baby pillows. These tools can help novice parents better support their baby's body, reduce the burden on their hands and improve the comfort and stability of holding their baby.

5. Stay relaxed and patient: Holding a baby requires certain skills and experience, and novice parents may feel nervous and uneasy. Try to keep a relaxed attitude, believe in your ability and give yourself enough time to adapt and learn. Remember, every novice parent will go through this process, and gradually you will become more and more skilled and confident.
