2, wrist hug method: put the baby's head in the left arm bend, elbow to protect the baby's head, left wrist and left hand to protect the back and waist, right forearm extended from the baby to protect the baby's legs, right hand to hold the baby's ass and waist. This method is a common posture.
3, do not hold the baby vertically: the newborn's head accounts for 1/4 of the whole body length. When holding the baby vertically, the whole weight of the baby's head is pressed on the cervical vertebra. 1-2 months, the baby's neck muscles are not fully developed and the neck muscles are weak. This incorrect holding posture should prevent damage to the baby's spine. These injuries were not easy to find at that time, but they may affect the child's future growth and development. So you can't hold the baby upright.
