How to Bond with your REBORN BABY doll!

[@bellasbassinet7745]

Dogs and dolls are my two fav things, i love it when your pups make an apearence.

[@ShellBellsChannel]

Aw I’m glad you enjoy watching the dogs! I like making videos with them too 🥰🥰 I do have a video coming out soon where Klaus meets all of the babies 🥰😅

[@levieenrose7646]

Hi Shell. Your baby is such a cutie❤ Great tips on bonding. A friend of mine takes her therapy baby to her counselling sessions. Her Psychologist told her that some studies have shown that holding a baby does in fact release endorphins that bring comfort/happiness to an individual. So I guess that's why reborns make us happy. Sending hugs from London 🥰Melissa xxx❤❤❤

[@ShellBellsChannel]

Thankyou 🥰 Yes a friend told me that one, like you say that must be why we like them 🥰

[@rosebarraco6397]

Well done!! You are adorable being just you!💜🌹🕊🕊

[@lornocford6482]

Great ideas. Also, play with them, cuddle them and look into their eyes. I find that the eyes are done so well. Have them interact with another doll. Maybe when you see your doll being friends with another doll it'll help you see them in a different way.

[@ShellBellsChannel]

Thanks for the tips!

[@SpecialAngelArtDolls]

These are great tips, Shell! I especially enjoyed your commentary on the psychology of why some of these things work. My own tips to add have to do with the other sensory aspects of reborns, not just how they look, although that is huge, of course. The thing I had to do as soon as I got into this hobby was learn how to stuff and weight them myself. My very first one came reeking of cigarette smoke and weighted with sand that was leaking everywhere. The sand bags were also so awkwardly placed that when cradled in my arms, it felt like she was arching backward, the way newborns do when they're uncomfortable or fighting sleep. It was very off-putting. So I learned to adjust them and also to make them smell nice when that was necessary, and I've found both scent and weight distribution can be really powerful for some people, and can make the difference between keeping a doll or selling it on. Loved the dog bloopers at the end! LOL

[@ShellBellsChannel]

Oh yes this is so true! 99% of the time that I buy a baby now I do the same I pull them apart and adjust the weighting and often make sure the magnet matches the same way as the rest of mine 😅 But 100% sometimes you receive babies and it feels like a hard stuffed football! I do understand why some stuff them more as it can be easier to pose them, but not as cuddly! Lol 🥰

Thanks shell I just got a twin a 3 weeks ago and struggle bonding thank u for your tips 🙃

[@ShellBellsChannel]

I hope that it can help, people say the BabySitMe app really does work wonders for bonding with your babies and I agree because it kinda forces you to spend time with them ahaha 🥰

[@hayleyfaye2933]

mine sleeps in my bed i cuddle before sleeping with him that helps too when you wake up and see his little face

[@ShellBellsChannel]

That could be helpful to lots of people 🥰

Mine sleeps with me as well but in a few days he is getting a new crib sion

Than you :)

[@HobbyPrincessHPG]

Hello. I love your beautiful and realistic looking doll! She is so precious. I don't own any reborn dolls. I am sure thinking about it. You have shared some great tips on how to bond with the dolls. The cuddling aspect is interesting. that is a great way to try to bond. Much enjoyed. Keep sharing what makes you happy!💖💖

[@ShellBellsChannel]

Thankyou so much for the beautiful supportive comment! I hope that you do find yourself a lovely reborn doll one day if you would like to own one 🥰🥰

[@lucequeenie9354]

I went to an actual shop to pick my reborn and I chosen the first one that took my eye. I looked at all the others but kept going back to this certain one and I couldn’t leave without her. We bonded as soon as she was in my arms and I’ve not stopped bonding with her since. I genuinely look at her and can’t believe she’s mine. Even all my family love her❤️

[@ShellBellsChannel]

That’s lovely, there are not many true reborn shops out there.

[@lucequeenie9354]

@@ShellBellsChannel I couldn’t believe it when I saw one an hour and half away from me. I was like I just have to go. The lady has been doing it for many years too so I knew she was a proper person because there’s so many scams out there!

[@BrittanyLeeannLawson]

Omg she’s breathtaking!

[@ShellBellsChannel]

Thankyou 🥰
