Why Babywearing Matters (Pinter & Martin Why It Matters, 5)

Pinter & Martin Why It Matters #5

by Rosie Knowles

Evidence continues to increase on the practical and emotional benefits of babywearing, both to parents and their children. Among many other benefits, babywearing can help parents bond with a new baby, and facilitate both breastfeeding and the care of the baby s older siblings.Babywearing also has benefits for society at large. Children are more securely emotionally attached and there is evidence of a link between the reduced incidence of postnatal depression and babywearing. In this new book, Rosie Knowles explores all these advantages, along with the practicalities of how to babywear and babywearing culture. She demonstrates how a clearer understanding of babywearing, and the attachment parenting philosophy as a whole, can ultimately lead to a happier, healthier society."

Съдържа някаква полезна информация, но много факти се повтарят в книгата. Структурата не ми хареса, а и самата книга беше скучна.

the book shares some interesting historical facts and useful practical advice. however, it’s the content is stretched and repetitive at times.

So I hate to say this but this one really disappointed me, it was repetitive and boring, I was really interested in learning more about the benefits of baby wearing but I felt this just spoke about the history, different cultures etc and not much about the actual benefits of wearing, it also felt like the author kept speaking about the same things, I actually DNF’d with about 30 minutes left, 2 stars for the little helpful information I did learn though.
