Complete Baby and Child Care

by Miriam Stoppard

This guide to baby and childcare aims to cover the complete experience of parenthood, and to equip parents with the necessary skill, information and confidence to raise healthy and happy children. Divided into five sections - "The Newborn Baby", "Everyday Care", "Play and Development", "Family Life" and "Medicine and Healthcare" - the book offers informative explanations and suggestions. Boy/girl panels highlight aspects of care and development where the sexes benefit from and need a different approach. Dr Stoppard has combined both traditional and up-to-date approaches to create a guide that is easy to use and ideal for quick-reference consultation.

This hasn't been read in its entirety, though I've read plenty - for all those times when you don't know if you should panic/visit the GP or treat something at home, or for when you can't remember what the rash should do, the answers can always be found here in a no nonsense, practical way.
A must have for any new parent.
