Expecting your sweet babe to arrive between June 22nd and July 22nd? There is a good chance your baby will be born under the sign of the crab!
What does this mean?
Well, Cancerians are a water sign ruled by the moon and are sometimes referred to as “moon children”.
This fourth sign of the zodiac is represented by the crab and, in general, Cancerians are said to be compassionate, loyal, and protective.
Looking after your Cancerian baby
The most family-focused of the star signs, a Cancerian baby will enjoy being swaddled as they need to feel secure.
They’re caring and will be aware of duty to family from a young age, which means they are a brilliant older sibling.
They also love to be useful, so they’ll thrive on being in charge of ‘tidy time’. Any big change to their routine, such as starting solids, can make them feel insecure, so take it slowly and give them lots of reassurance and encouragement.
