Three best friends. One late-night lifeline.Meet Aisha, Sophy and
Mel. Three new mums. All absolutely shattered. For her social media
fans, influencer Sophy has the picture-perfect life. But why does
she feel so lonely all the time? Older mum Mel wasn't planning on
being a mum later in life. What does this all mean for the career
that she loved? Can she ever go back? And Aisha, whose much loved
twin boys bring her so much joy, but have caused a rift in her own
family that she isn't sure she can ever fix. Navigating this new
world of motherhood is hard. And the only sanity these three
friends have is their 3am mums' club, where they can chat and
support each other in the dark of the night as their babies,
finally, finally sleep. But in the still of the night, secrets are
revealed that could turn all their lives upside down.... more than
they already are! Bestselling author Nina Manning is back with a
brand-new story of mum guilt, parenting pitfalls and friendship
around the clock.
Few life experiences feature emotional swings as extreme as those
of pregnancy--it's a monumental mix of both intense excitement and
skip-a-beat anxiety. How do you respond to such a situation? If
you're like most, you scour websites, read books, browse blogs, and
pick the brains of every friend, family member, and store clerk
who's ever had a baby. You talk about the ups and downs, the
cravings and the nausea, the maternity clothes and the stretch
marks. During this 280-day journey, this sometimes scattered
mind-set is perfectly natural--and healthy. But often you need help
cutting through the clutter. In "YOU: Having a Baby," Dr. Mehmet Oz
and Dr. Michael Roizen, America's Doctors, will help ease your
tension by teaching you not only about "what "you can do but also
"why "you should do it. They'll explore the biology of your body
with amazing insights about a cutting-edge new field called
epigenetics, which gives you the power to change the genetic
destiny of your child. And they'll give you all the ins and outs of
nutrition, exercise, hormones, fetal development, and many more
pregnancy-related issues. Using their signature wit and wisdom,
they'll test your knowledge, bust many myths, and reassure you that
your maternal instincts are usually pretty darn good. After all,
the doctors want the exact same thing as you do during this
journey--a healthy baby (and a healthy mom). Be assured that "YOU:
Having a Baby "will be one of your favorite passengers on this
wonderful ride.
Written during award-winning pediatrician Dr. Scott W. Cohen's
first year as a father, this book is the only one to combine two
invaluable "on the job" perspectives--the doctor's and the new
parent's.
The result is a refreshingly engaging and informative guide that
includes all you need to know at each age and stage of your child's
first year. Drawing on the latest medical recommendations and his
experiences at home and in the office, Dr. Cohen covers everything
from preparing for your baby's arrival to introducing her to a new
sibling, to those three basic functions that will come to dominate
a new parent's life. "Eat, Sleep, Poop "addresses questions,
strategies, myths, and all aspects of your child's development. In
each instance, Dr. Cohen provides a thorough overview and a simple
answer or explanation: a "common sense bottom line," yet he doesn't
dictate. The emphasis is on doing what is medically sound "and
"what works best for you and your baby. He also includes fact
sheets, easy-to-follow diagnosis and treatment guides, and humorous
daddy vs. doctor sidebars that reveal the learning curve during his
fi rst year as a dad.
Lively, practical, and reassuring, "Eat, Sleep, Poop "provides the
knowledge you need to parent with confidence, to relax and enjoy
baby's fi rst year, and to raise your child with the best tool a
parent can have: informed common sense.
