This study was planned as a randomized controlled double-blind experimental study to examine the effect of aromatherapy on newborn pain, stress and behaviors. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Lavender oil massage applied to newborns has an effect on pain, stress and behavior of newborns. * Lavender oil bath applied to newborns has an effect on pain, stress and behavior of newborns. * There is a difference between lavender oil massage and lavender oil bath applications applied to newborns in reducing the pain and stress level of the newborn and regulating their behavior. Randomization method will be used in the determination of the study groups (Lavender massage, lavender bath and control group), and the study group to which the newborns will be included will be determined in the computer environment. Gender, gestational age, postnatal age and body weight will be considered as matching criteria for newborns included in lavender massage, lavender bath and control groups. For ALPS-Neo and ABSS evaluations, 10 minutes (20 minutes in total) of newborns will be recorded with a video camera before and after the study.
