Re: how do you give a baby massage?
I teach infant massage Shana! There is a book/Video you can get that's really helpful, I think this is the site: Baby's First Massage
Let me know if you have any questions!
ETA: Always make sure you either read a book or watch a video on infant massage, ie: you don't want to do abdominal massage in the wrong direction, it can cause constipation and a very cranky baby!
ETA2: I think that site is geared more towards therapists, but they do sell massage books at Borders, etc...

Re: how do you give a baby massage?
I saw something on TV, about giving the legs a massage...
(I usually use the J&J night time oil, or cream) I hold his foot with one hand, and massge downward, then switch hands...
As far as body.... I read about the "I Love You" massage... and its what I usually do on the body.... as far as him arms and back... I just gently rub/ massage the cream in!
I love you massage (this isnt the website I used... but its basically the same thing)
I always sing, and speak to him while doing it!
