During a routine health check-up for her child, a mother was complimented by an elderly woman sitting next to her: "Your baby is so well-behaved, not fussy or crying at all. She's truly a blessed child."
Such compliments are quite common. When grandparents see a baby eating and sleeping well, being fussy, or smiling often, they happily say that the child is "lucky" or "born to bring blessings to their parents."
So what characteristics do babies who are affectionately called that usually possess?
1. Healthy, in good physical condition
Many parents find that when their child is healthy, childcare becomes much easier. The whole family experiences fewer anxious nights, fewer rushes to the doctor, and more time to enjoy quality time with their child.
Health is a crucial foundation for a child's growth and development, and something every family desires.
A healthy baby who eats, sleeps, and develops well is a simple but precious joy for parents.
2. Moderate birth weight
