This bestselling, best-loved baby guide—and follow-up to What to Expect When You’re Expecting—offers everything you want to know about the care (and feeding) of your infant. Covers monthly growth and development, feeding for every age and stage, sleep strategies that really work, and the very best ways to stimulate your baby (and have fun at the same time!). Filled with the most practical tips (how to pump up your milk supply, give a bath, get a good burp, make your own baby food, cope with colic), the most up-to-date medical advice (the latest on car seats, safety around the house, vaccines, vitamin supplements, treating common illnesses, preventing SIDS), and more.

Dalla quarta di copertina: The comprehensive month-by-month guide that clearly explains everything parents need to know about the first year with a new baby.

Featuring a practical, illustrated Baby Care Primer, a First Aid Guide, and Best-Odds Recipes.

With special sections on the older sibling; selecting the right physician; seasonal concerns and traveling with baby; managing childhood illnesses; and nurturing the adopted baby, the low-birthweight infant, and the baby with specific problems.
