Your Baby's Beginning: A Parenting Guide for Your Baby's First Week - Frank W. Bowen

In this in-depth guide, a neonatologist takes new parents by the hand as he shares details of a baby's first week and describes what constitutes normal in three different areas: physical, behavioral, and feeding. Included with the guide are questions to help parents reflect upon and remember their worries, questions, and treasured moments during this special time. Becoming a parent can be one of the most beautiful, exhilarating, confusing, and exhausting times of a person's life. Along with the excitement, joy, and love come a thousand questions: How much should my baby eat?; What should I expect from breastfeeding?; What is my baby experiencing today?; and, perhaps the most common question, Is this normal?.

In this in-depth guide, he takes new parents by the hand as he shares details of your baby's first week, and describes what constitutes normal in three different areas: physical, behavioral, and feeding. Included with the guide are questions to help you reflect upon (and remember!) your worries, questions, and treasured moments during this special time in your life.
