Good details

Must have for new borns.

For a mother who likes to be prepared and in the know this is excellent for a basic understanding of what is happening with your little one

Habe das Buch für meine Freundin gekauft, die in der 26. SSW entbunden hat. Sie liebt dieses Buch und ist begeistert!

Having had my daughter 7 1/2 weeks premature I have found this a interesting read. I recommend it to any one who has just had a prem or knows they may have to deliver their baby prematurely, unfortunately for me there is almost no books available in NZ about prem babies. I was unable to get this book before we had left hospital but I know I would have found it so useful when we were in there with understanding what was going on with our baby. The chapter on breastmilk/ feeding baby was one I found very useful even 3 months down the track, and the growth charts in the back are helpful when all the ones available are based on full term babies. All the information in regards to co-sleeping is some of the most interesting I have come across, and makes me feel better about how we are raising our daughter(she sleeps at least half the night in our bed).This book take the uncertainty out of having a premature baby and answers questions in a very easy to understand manner, the information is provided in a unbiased way.I just wish that some of the recommended items I could get in NZ :-)
