About the Author

Emily Jeffers is a pediatric nurse and mother of three. She has more than 15 years of experience in giving help and support to new parents and their babies, and 10 years in being a mom. During her career, she has recognized certain issues that bother all new parents. This parenting guidance is to help answer the most common questions and give encouragement to parents at the beginning of the most important journey of their lives.

Expecting a baby is a miraculous yet chaotic time. You hope to live the fairy tale with a chubby, smiling, curly-haired baby out of a diaper commercial. You dream about its beautiful eyes, and how you and your partner will become even closer when that little bundle of joy arrives. A million thoughts swirl in your head: How will I do this? Can I be a good parent? What if this happens, what if that occurs? You name it.

Emily Jeffers’ book will help prepare you for newborn parenting and enable you to be confident, relaxed parents who know what they’re doing. Here are answers to many doubts and questions every new parent has, from the newborn’s first day to its first birthday.

You will find out a lot of useful information about:

  • What a fontanelle is.
  • Newborn feeding (breastfeeding and bottle feeding).
  • Burping.
  • Colic.
  • How babies’ senses develop.
  • Bathing, baby care skin, and possible skin problems.
  • Diapering a baby.
  • Caring for your newborn’s umbilical cord stump.
  • Baby nail care.
  • Baby mouth hygiene.
  • Baby’s ears and eyes.
  • Washing baby clothes.
  • Baby and winter.
  • Teething.
  • Newborn sleep training.
  • A baby-friendly house.
  • Playing with your baby.
  • What babies like.
  • And much more!

Being a parent is a full-time job with no weekends or vacations, and it lasts for the rest of your life. Yet, although it may sound scary, it’s also the most pleasurable and rewarding job on the planet. That little human being is coming to make you a different, better person than you could ever imagine yourself to be.

With a lot of love and a reliable book with solutions to your dilemmas, you’re at the great beginning of a marvelous journey.

This audiobook is full of great advice

This audiobook is full of great advice for first time parents, even if you do not follow "the routine". We are trying to follow it, but we have not yet been successful at establishing the routine.

However, it is a great starting point. Before the book, life with our new baby was very random and chaotic. With Emily's book, we at least have targets to aim for whether things are going well or not.

Both of us are doctors and what she says makes a lot of sense from a medical science point of view. It is clear that she has looked after a lot of babies both in and out of hospital.

I would not say that this is the only way but it is a great place to start if you would like some order and routine in your life.

Her book is very much about getting your baby into a routine that fits well around parents' sleep and sanity!

Great reference guide.

Could not believe so much has changed since my last baby. I'm already referring and re-referring this audiobook. I bought the book based on recommendations but was positively surprised by how comprehensive the coverage of topics is. It covers not only the top questions but also a few key topics, such as breastfeeding and sleeping. Great reference guide.

Superb!

This is a super helpful, informative audiobook for first-time parents. I even bought a paper version as a gift. My daughter refers to it all the time. So helpful!

Love this audio guide into parenting baby...

Love this audio guide into parenting baby... I have used it constantly since my son's birth. I like the way it is organized by topic and then by questions. Also, the info seems as evidenced-based as it can be, and reasonable advice. I would highly recommend it as a first-time mom.

Great guide

A great guide to what to expect and how your baby should be developing. A lot of really helpful medical and developmental information without a lot of anecdotal add-ins - just enough to give a sense of real advice and experience. Clear and to the point. I loved that this was written by medical professional and mom. Glad I purchased!

This is by far my most favorite baby book

This is by far my most favorite baby book, I would say if you don't want to read or listen to a lot, just buy this one and it will be enough to cover all the main topics about the newborn baby.

This is an awesome audiobook!

This is an awesome audiobook! I highly recommend this audio, especially to first-time mommies. It is very detailed and thorough. I am a mom of 3 currently pregnant with our 4th. I try to get books like these to not only help me keep up with baby appointments and things of that nature, but I think it is something beautiful to give each child when they are becoming parents.

I have followed the routines

I have followed the routines of this audio for all my 3 children and it just WORKS. It’s amazing!!! If you stick to it and at the same time are flexible with it, then it works and does wonders. At 1 month old ALL my children were already sleeping through the night on their own (7pm to around 5am). Babies will NOT starve with this routine. On the contrary, your baby won’t cry much because of you follow it you will be feeding him/her right when he/she is getting hungry, you will put him/her to sleep right when he/she is getting tired...that’s the beauty of it that parents and baby get synchronized.

For me it has been the best gift I got form a friend during my first pregnancy. It gives me peace of mind, I know exactly what my babies need and what to expect. I know exactly what is a good time to go out the house, run an errand, have visitors, etc. It’s just perfect for an organized person like me.

So glad my sister purchased this for me.

So glad my sister purchased this for me. I'm a first-time mom, and this book had helped me out of some tough jams when I had no idea what to do, and my mother or sister couldn't be there to help me.
