As you arrive to babysit your cousin's six-week-old baby so she and her husband can go out, you find her swaddling the baby on the couch
You ask her why she is doing that. In fact, you wonder if it will negatively affect the baby's motor skills as well as make her cry more because her movement is so restricted. Drawing upon research, what does your cousin tell you?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: Swaddling is soothing for babies and reduces their crying. It is practiced in many cultures and does not inhibit motor development.
