This book will show you how to soothe your baby and solve any problems you may come across with sleeping, feeding, crying and colic. Drawing on her experience as a mother and advisor to the NCT, Caroline Deacon has devised a simple but effective 3-step plan to help parents understand and care for their baby's needs without neglecting their own. Summary of contents * The three basic universal needs of both parent and child are comfort, sleep and food. Caroline Deacon works with these three needs to bring you her three-step plan. Written in five parts, the first three explain and address the needs of: 1) newborns 2) from six weeks 3) from six months 4) from the toddler years. The fifth part focuses on colic and babies who cry a lot, giving parents clear guidance and practical solutions. Includes other parents' shared experiences, providing empathy as well as practical advice.
"Teach Yourself Your Baby's Development" will provide a unique combination of advice, practical exercises and background information for the ever-growing numbers of parents interested in helping their child get a successful head start in life. It explains how your baby develops socially, intellectually and emotionally, before moving on to a step-by-step guide to what to expect at every stage from birth to preschool. It includes both authoritative information and also interactive exercises so that you can review and note your child's progress, and help them to learn and grow in every sense with tips, suggestions and games. It will reassure any parent worried about 'milestones' and provide plenty of support for those with special children, including pre-term babies and multiple births.
Becoming a mother is probably the most life-changing experience any woman goes through and the first weeks after giving birth is a period of huge adjustment for both mother and baby. Many cultures recognise this with a period of 'lying in' but in the West we have lost this, pressuring women to get 'back to normal; as soon as possible after birth. We need to rediscover the art of mothering the new mother. We expect new mothers to carry on as before, as quickly as possible, and in minimising the time they need to recover from the birth and get to know their babies, we trivialise the event. Not surprising then that ten percent of women in the UK have severe postnatal depression and many more feel they 'can't cope'. NCT counsellor, psychologist and bestselling author Caroline Deacon explores how we can prepare for, and enjoy, an ideal babymoon and make the most of this most precious and vital time. The book offers a reassuring, affirming, entertaining and informative guide to babymooning and takes the reader through pregnancy, birth and those key first weeks of a newborn's life.
