What to Expect the First Year
Author: Heidi Murkoff
Publisher: Workman Publishing
ISBN: 0761148310
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 833
Book Description
Some things about babies, happily, will never change. They still arrive warm, cuddly, soft, and smelling impossibly sweet. But how moms and dads care for their brand-new bundles of baby joy has changed—and now, so has the new-baby bible. Announcing the completely revised third edition of What to Expect the First Year. With over 10.5 million copies in print, First Year is the world’s best-selling, best-loved guide to the instructions that babies don’t come with, but should. And now, it’s better than ever. Every parent’s must-have/go-to is completely updated. Keeping the trademark month-by-month format that allows parents to take the potentially overwhelming first year one step at a time, First Year is easier-to-read, faster-to-flip-through, and new-family-friendlier than ever—packed with even more practical tips, realistic advice, and relatable, accessible information than before. Illustrations are new, too. Among the changes: Baby care fundamentals—crib and sleep safety, feeding, vitamin supplements—are revised to reflect the most recent guidelines. Breastfeeding gets more coverage, too, from getting started to keeping it going. Hot-button topics and trends are tackled: attachment parenting, sleep training, early potty learning (elimination communication), baby-led weaning, and green parenting (from cloth diapers to non-toxic furniture). An all-new chapter on buying for baby helps parents navigate through today’s dizzying gamut of baby products, nursery items, and gear. Also new: tips on preparing homemade baby food, the latest recommendations on starting solids, research on the impact of screen time (TVs, tablets, apps, computers), and “For Parents” boxes that focus on mom’s and dad’s needs. Throughout, topics are organized more intuitively than ever, for the best user experience possible.

Book Description
THE COMPLETE BABY & CHILD CARE HANDBOOK For more than four decades, parents worldwide have referred to Marina's book as their 'baby bible'. The Baby & Child Care Handbook is fully up to date, with the latest medical research. You will also have free access to Marina's website (www.baby-childcare.com) featuring over 100 video talks by world renowned paediatric experts, doctors and professors on a variety of childcare subjects.These are arranged according to the subject of each chapter in the book. 'It is my sincere conviction that parents of all shades and creeds share a common bond: that of wanting the best for their children. It is also the right of every child to be raised with enough care to nurture mind, body and soul; so that each will grow up with the good sense of self-worth and a chance to realise their full potential.' MARINA PETROPULOS 'Marina highlights that each child is an individual, so we as parents get to know them in order to provide their particular needs. There is no single right way and Marina is very clear that we have to trust our knowledge of our particular children in order to help them grow up to be adults who can negotiate their way in life. This is a book to have always on one's bedside table!' Dr ALAN WOOD, Medical Journal. 'This book is a veritable one-stop knowledge shop... Not only does it seem to cover every single, solitary, freaky, benign, apparently stupid or incredibly bright question a fuzzy-headed mother might find herself asking, but it does so in a calm, credible, non-judgemental and non-patronising tone... there are also the more tricky topics like the hopes we have for our children, and - very sensitively and sensibly dealt with - the issue of discipline... particularly useful are the handy grids to illnesses, their symptoms and when to see a doctor... ' KAREN SCHIMKE 'This book provides an up-to-date, comprehensive and reliable, factual advice and help for parents and parents-to-be. I unreservedly recommend it.' DR JOHN PEARN, Royal Children's' Hospital, Australia. 'This book read beautifully - it is light, yet serious and thorough and up-to-date. A really marvellous guide and source of excellent information.' Professor Astrid Berg, MB ChB, FC Psych (SA), MPhil (Child & Adolescent Psychiatry). Professor Berg is on the Board of Directors of the World Association for Infant Mental Health. 'This book could be the best investment parents ever make...' SUNDAY TIMES. Curious?
