The First Six Months, Explained

For new parents (and parents-to-be) getting twenty different pieces of advice a day. This book isn't about sleep training, because you don't sleep-train a baby under 6 months. It helps you understand what's going on at each stage and start the habits that have research behind them.

What's inside: how newborns really sleep and why they wake so often; feeds, day and night; helping your baby tell day from night; the crying curve and a calming kit to try in order; the 12 safe sleep rules and an honest talk about bed-sharing; a prevention plan, stage by stage; what actually happens around 4 months; and a traffic-light guide to when to call the pediatrician.

We'll be straight with you: these habits don't guarantee your baby will sleep through the night by 6 months. Nobody can promise that.

Format: 38-page PDF, easy to read on your phone between feeds, or on any other device.
