Moms on Call | Basic Baby Care 0-6 Months | Parenting Book 1 of 3 (Moms On Call Parenting Books)

Product Information

Perhaps you find yourself lying awake at night, pondering the multitude of decisions that parenthood demands. All guidance is helpful they provide is helpful, but the sleep schedule is the real golden information. It now made sense why every single one of my mom friends recommended this book; a no-frills instruction manual on how to raise a baby. Laura is a mother of five, a pediatric nurse with over 25 years of experience, an entrepreneur, an author, public speaker and a highly sought-after infant-care consultant who has an international following. All the advice is geared towards raising a baby in the easiest way for you, to the detriment of your baby.

One detail you will see over and over again in our resources is the role that white noise from sound machines plays in a great night’s sleep and daytime naps. This vivid memory underscores the importance of anchoring furniture, especially bookcases, to walls. Some of this information really surprised me (baby sleeping not in your room and daily baths for example…both not recommended by our local baby 101 class) but other portions of this were super informative where I knew NOTHING about before (like starting to feed babies solids).If want your baby to doze for longer stretches during the night, and to have productive sleep during the day, read it! Creating a feeding routine that’s adaptable and focused on your baby’s unique needs is the cornerstone for fostering healthy growth.

We will be caring for this child FT while working FT after our parental leaves so I think we would strongly benefit from a set schedule. The 12-week mark is an exciting time for both you and your little one as several transitions unfold together.

Navigating the world of infant feeding can be overwhelming for new parents, especially when you’re faced with a sea of conflicting advice. Jennifer has multiple roles—wife, mother of three, pediatric nurse, public speaker, infant and toddler care consultant and author.
