Sometimes babies aren’t “being difficult” — they may just be overstimulated. 💛

Too much noise, activity, or stimulation can feel overwhelming for little ones. Signs your baby may need a calm break can include:
• Fussiness or irritability
• Continuous crying
• Arching their back or becoming tense
• Looking away from toys or people
• Avoiding eye contact

A quiet, soothing environment can help your baby reset and feel safe again. 🍼✨

If you are pregnant or have an infant under 3 months and would like to learn more about our Healthy Families Program, call 765-653-4820 ext. 109 or visit fsswci.net
