A Parent's Guide to the 8 Senses: Why Understanding Them is a Newborn Hack
Episode 200
Thursday, 5 March, 2026
This week on Sense by Meg Faure, we dive into one of the most powerful tools a new parent can have: understanding your baby's sensory world. In this solo episode based on the bestselling book Baby Sense, Meg explains why your newborn startles, fusses, and becomes overwhelmed, and how you can become their sensory filter to create a world of calm.This is a masterclass in decoding your newborn's behavior. You will learn:Your Baby's 8 Senses: Move beyond the basic five and discover all eight senses your baby uses to experience the world, from the well-developed sense of touch to the still-maturing sense of sight.The States of Infancy: Understand the six states your baby moves through, from deep sleep to crying, and learn how to identify the magical "calm alert state" for learning and connection.How to Read Your Baby's Cues: Meg provides a clear guide to your baby's four types of signals—from early "approach" and "warning" signs to later "stress" and "crying" signals—so you can respond before they become distressed.The Womb World Hack: Learn how to soothe your baby by recreating the sensory sanctuary of the womb using deep pressure (swaddling), white noise, and rhythmic movement.This episode will give you "sensory eyes," empowering you to stop guessing and start responding confidently to what your baby is truly telling you.About Our Host:Meg Faure is an occupational therapist, author of the 'Sense' series of parenting books (including Baby Sense), and the founder of the Parent Sense app. With decades of experience working with parents and babies, her mission is to bring calm, clarity, and confidence to the parenting journey.Episode References and Links:Book: Baby Sense by Meg Faure📱 Parent Sense App – Your all-in-one baby care app for routines, nutrition, and expert advice.
