You won't believe it when holding your newborn, but in just four months your baby will be kicking, wriggling - even crawling. So ensure she's wearing a comfortable nappy, like Pampers Active Fit with Comfort Stretch.

Baby Yoga
Here's a great way to encourage your baby's movement skills. You can start these exercises when she reaches 4 months old. Baby yoga aids neural development, motor skills, balance and digestion - as well as encouraging a deeper bond. She'll also sleep at night as the yoga will make her tired.

Hippo at the watering hole - Focuses on your baby's hips and legs

• a) Kneel on the floor with your baby on her back, facing you. Holding her calves, bend her knees towards her tummy. Hold for a few seconds then release.
  Repeat three times.
• b) Gently move her bent knee in a circular, clockwise motion so her thighs massage her tummy.
• c) Keeping her knees bent and holding your baby's buttocks for extra support, gently roll her from side to side.

Lauging monkey - Encourages neural development and motor skills

• a) With your baby lying on the floor facing you, pick up an opposing hand and foot, and bring them towards each other three times.
• b) Rotate her hand and foot around each other slowly one way, then the other to stimulate her brain.
• c) Gently wrap her arm and leg around her body. Hold for five seconds.
• d) Repeat all three steps with your baby's other arm and leg.

The rolling club - Assists coordination and balance

• a) Sit on the floor with your baby between your legs, her back to you. Roll her arms around each other three times, then hug them around her chest.
• b) Roll her arms three more times, taking them out to the side to open up her chest. Then bring her arms to the floor. Your baby should instinctively lean forward.
• c) Sit her up and raise her arms. If your baby is ready, she'll stand up.
• d) Try this exercise with her legs to encourage your baby's hip mobility.

The dreamy giraffe - Pefect for winding down

• a) Put your baby on her back on the floor. Lie sideways next to her. Put a reassuring hand on her chest.
• b) Focus on your breathing and rest for 10 minutes. The more relaxed you are, the relaxed she'll be.
• c) Or lie on your back supported by cushions, baby on your chest. She'll be comforted by the sound of your heartbeat. Remember to put her on her back in her cot immediately if she falls asleep.
