How long should I massage my baby?   
Start with a few minutes, then build up to ten to twenty minutes, once or twice a day. Start slowly and see how you and your baby are responding.

When is the best time?   
In the morning when your baby is quietly alert, or before or after a bath... or in the evening just before sleep.

What if I don't have enough time for a full massage?   
If you find that you don't have enough time for a full massage, incorporate sequences like legs and feet or arms and shoulders or abdomen into baby care times... bathing, changing diapers, any time you are naturally spending time together.

When should I stop infant massage?   
Massage until your baby is about six or seven months old and is starting to crawl. But the benefits of baby massage are still there. Many parents find children like the massage to continue, and that it helps them to relax. See how you both feel, maybe a good back rub before bed will become a part of your lives together.
