What do newborn facial expressions mean?
Newborns are precious and utterly fascinating. Every day with them is full of discoveries. One of the most amazing things about them is their facial expressions. They start making all kinds of faces from the moment they are born. Some look peaceful, others look like they are in pain, and still, others look like they are concentrating hard on something. So what do all these newborn facial expressions mean? Let's take a closer look.
Peaceful Expression
The most common peaceful expression you will see on your baby's face. It usually happens when they are sleeping or just after they have had a feeding. This face is characterized by an open mouth and eyes that are still or lightly squinting. Sometimes you may even see a faint smile on your baby's face when they are in a deep sleep.
Facial Expression of Pain
You may see this grimace on your baby's face when they have a wet or dirty diaper or are constipated. It can also signify that they are overstimulated and need some quiet time. If you see this expression, try to soothe your baby by rocking them or taking them for a ride in the stroller.
Concentration Face
This is one of the cutest expressions on your newborn's face! They usually make this face when trying to figure something out or solve a problem (like how to get their hand into their mouth). You might also see this expression when your baby is trying to learn something new, like how to hold their head up or rollover.
Conclusion:
Newborns are unique creatures who are perpetual motion machines. Their little bodies and brains work overtime to learn everything about the world around them. Watching them grow and change daily is an incredible experience for any parent. But it can also be confusing because sometimes it's hard to know what our babies are trying to tell us. Their facial expressions can be one way to help us understand what they need or how they're feeling at any given moment. So next time you wonder what that look on your newborn's face means, take a step back and try to figure it out. They just might be trying to tell you something important!
