No such effect occurred when a parent or stranger simply held the child. Likewise, during tight hugs, the researchers saw no positive change to RRI ratios. According to co-author Hiromasa Funato, “Due to this inconspicuous feature, we think that the experimental data, indicating the relaxing effect of a parent-infant hug, had been a missing piece for a while, even though there was much situational evidence.” Says Yoshida: “Parents also showed a high increase ratio of heartbeats intervals by hugging their infants. We found that both infants and parents come to relax by hugging.” RRI is the reciprocal of the heartbeat rate,” says the study, “meaning that the RRI ratio increases when the heartbeat rate decreases.” Researchers consider a higher RRI value as a greater degree of relaxation in the infant, and, thus, as a positive response.

One of the surprising takeaways of the study is that the RRI value of hugging only applies to infants who are not currently busy crying or being fussy. The study notes that people may think of a hug as an unspoken type of social contract between infant and parent or caregiver, and the authors of the study saw evidence that a hug’s calming effect may, indeed, be reciprocal.

A hug has another purpose altogether. It is an expression of affection, expressing, the study says, “joy, love, happiness, and warmth.” In general, the study notes, a parent holds or hugs a baby for two different reasons. A hold is a functional posture, positioning an infant for feeding or carrying.When you cuddle your child, both of you receive a flood of a hormone called oxytocin, which you may have heard referred to as ‘the love hormone’, owing to the warm, fuzzy feeling you might feel when it’s released. We're helpless for a relatively longer period in our life than any other creature. We need to be made warm, held, brought close. It's necessary for survival. Nonetheless, the study finds a warm hug is a powerful and effective means of expressing affection between parent and child:

Turn-taking is key to children’s social skills as they learn to communicate, forming the basis of conversation as they learn language.

Linda suspects that learning about turn-taking is part and parcel of early cuddles, as during these bonding moments, parents focus on their child’s needs in an up-close and personal way. “If the baby starts squirming, you naturally loosen up. If the baby is shivering, you naturally cuddle more. You're teaching turn-taking: they express a need, and you respond. It deepens the parent-child bond, but it also makes the baby more aware of the importance of turn-taking in a relationship without them knowing.” Please note that we cannot guarantee direct delivery lead times until availability is confirmed by our brand partners.
