But there are lots of reasons why babies have complex needs, so it’s really important not to blame yourself and give yourself a hard time. And although your child maybe different to other children, your little one is still very special. The most important thing they’ll need is you and lots of love… just like every child. Doing activities together can be a great way to bond, so try different things to find out what your little one enjoys doing. Each day might have some difficult moments and some days will be harder than others but it’s good to remind yourself what’s gone well and remember those special priceless moments too. When you get a chance at the end of a hard day, think about of all the amazinga dventures that you’ve done together… and start planning the ones still to come.
It might be difficult to hear your little one is born with complex needs, but every child is special and there are ways you can help them develop and enjoy those priceless moments together.
