Quante volte ti è capitato di sentire apostrofare un bambino come "pigro"? Sicuramente tante volte, ecco, non ha senso.

Per capire però perché questa frase non ha senso dobbiamo comprendere come fa un bambino ad imparare le abilità e le tappe di sviluppo che contraddistinguono la sua crescita e costruire anche gli strumenti per intercettare in tempo alcune difficoltà dello sviluppo.

Allora venite con me in questo viaggio nel mondo della crescita del bambino.

In questo episodio esploriamo cosa significa nascere prima del tempo, dei rischi reali che questo comporta per lo sviluppo e di quanto le prime settimane di vita possano fare la differenza.

Raccontiamo come la T.I.N. non sia solo un luogo di cura intensiva, ma una “seconda gestazione” fatta di contatto, protezione sensoriale e care posturale. E soprattutto di come i genitori, attraverso gesti semplici ma fondamentali, possano diventare uno dei più importanti fattori di protezione per il loro bambino.

Parliamo di uno degli argomenti che più di tutti interessano i neo genitori: l'allattamento.

In questo episodio ne approfondiamo la fisiologia, gli eventuali disturbi associati e ne analizziamo la complessità in tutte le sue sfaccettature.
