But, remember, your child is a unique individual and has to play an all-important role in deciding how she grows, develops and copes with the world. So, here are some tips on how to tell your baby you love him without words. Hold your baby in a gentle, secure way, giving tender caresses and affectionate hugs. Avoid tense, jerky, abrupt handling. Gently stroke your baby's face, arms and legs.
Babies thrive on loving touches.
Use your eyes to tell your baby you love him. Hum, whistle or sing to your baby. If your voice is low, gentle, soothing, full of joy and love, your baby will feel it. Rock your baby. You may notice that your baby drools a lot.
