Book Description

October 1, 2006
An experienced maternity nurse and mother offers practical advice on coping with your baby’s first year.

Rachel Waddilove has worked for many years as a private maternity nurse; her clients include Gwyneth Paltrow. In this book, she draws on her considerable professional and personal experience to advise young parents on everything they need to know about looking after a baby in its first year. Areas covered include: needs for the nursery, coming home from hospital, breast feeding vs bottle feeding, establishing a routine, sleep, crying, and introducing solid food. In addition to the host of practical information given, Rachel also considers the emotional and social aspects of becoming a parent.

Rachel’s down-to-earth style and wealth of experience makes this an essential guide for new parents, expectant parents, and all who want the best care for their children.

4.0 out of 5 stars Helpful Book with Some Tweaking, February 11, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Baby Book: How to Enjoy Year One (Paperback)
I found this book to be helpful with some tweaking. She mentions that the child should take their long nap in the morning and the short one in the afternoon; I did just the opposite and my 7 month old twins are AWESOME sleepers. They take a 45-55 minute nap in the morning, 2-2.5 hour nap in the afternoon and sleep from 7:30/8pm till 9/9:30am every night! Also, they are exclusively breastfed so I never gave them boiled water since they were hydrated enough from the nursing. Very helpful pointers though overall. If I can schedule and get twin boys to sleep this well, then anyone can!!!

This review is from: The Baby Book: How to Enjoy Year One (Paperback)
I would reccomend this book to any Mom needing help with setting a routine. I would say though if you are nursing it is much harder to keep up with her every four hour feeding schedule.

5.0 out of 5 stars Covers everything, February 19, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Baby Book: How to Enjoy Year One (Paperback)
This book is amazing! Rachel covers everything a new parent would need, from schedules, to breast feeding to even checklists for a new baby. I love that she gives a wide array of opinions on parenting tips and things that we all struggle with. She even goes through how to swaddle a baby-pictures!, and even bathing! I absolutley love her kind demeanor when she writes her book! I would reccomend this book to any new mom =)
