Comment on Feeling Clueless? Reading Your Baby’s Cues by chris white

Very nice article! I believe that one of the most important things is for people to “sense into their own bodies” to feel from the inside out what the baby/child is feeling. The resonance circuitry in our brain creates that possibility, although many are tuned out to the information. The lists you provide are helpful for the more “tuned-out” amongst us as a pointer in the right direction. But ultimately, this let brain activity of matching the behavioral description with the internal feeling is slower and less precise than the right brain capacity to sense others states directly.
And see http://blog.essentialparenting.com/2010/07/attachment-is-not-the-elimination-of-difficult-emotions/
for my agreement with you that we are not meant to stop all crying in our children.
Good to come across your blog!
