Signs of an Indigo Baby

Before we delve into the traits of indigo infants, let’s look at the signs that appear just before one arrives. Some common indications that a mother may carry this type of Starseed include:

  • Conception difficulties
  • Pregnancy complications
  • Early or late delivery
  • Emergency delivery

If one of the above signs appears during your pregnancy, the chances increase that your baby will be an indigo child.

Traits of an Indigo Infant

Raising an indigo baby is a true pleasure because they demonstrate a few characteristics uncommon in most infants. 

While indigo children do face unique challenges as they become toddlers, the first year of child-rearing is relatively easy for parents of indigo babies. 

Find some of the traits of an indigo infant below.

1. Sleeps Through the Night

The best part about raising an indigo from birth involves your infant’s sleep patterns. 

After the first six months of frequent feedings every few hours, your little indigo will start to sleep through the night. 

Feel free to start sleep training in the nursery shortly after the six-month mark. You will find that your baby sleeps through the night, offering significant relief to you and your partner.

2. Eats Slowly

One of the most frustrating, but still humorous, traits of an indigo newborn is how long feedings can take. 

Indigos are content to daydream during a feeding, enjoying the moment more than the milk itself. 

If your indigo baby loses focus during feedings, try shaking your breast to make your baby more aware of its surroundings again.

Once you start feeding your baby cereal and other solids, you may need to disguise food with a small amount of sugar, chocolate, or honey to speed things up. 

3. Displays Happy Affectivity

While you can expect your indigo child to go through all of the same emotions as other children as they grow up, indigo babies seem thrilled to be alive when their stomachs are full and their diapers dry.

The nonstop display of happy affectivity begins in the crib and continues well into their toddler years, when they will start encountering boo-boos, punishment, and other consequences.

Even so, indigo infants are quick to recover from moments of pain, frustration, and guilt.

4. Remains Calm When Left Alone

Indigo newborns experience separation anxiety like any other baby. However, you will notice that the phase is shorter and less intense than it is with the average baby.

If you stay cognizant of the fact that your baby struggles with separation anxiety and assuage any fears with proper reassurances, you can cut down the length of this phase significantly.

Soon after, your indigo baby will start showing signs of independence, hitting developmental milestones far earlier than mildly gifted two-year-olds. 

A Note About Indigo Baby Eyes 

The eyes of indigos have served as the impetus for much discussion. 

Some well-intentioned individuals have concluded that indigo children have blue eyes. However, most indigos have brown eyes simply because brown eyes are more common. 

In fact, eye color has no bearing on whether an infant is an indigo baby.

Do You Have One or More Indigo Babies?
