Congratulations! You are now entering one of the greatest phases of your life — parenthood. There is perhaps nothing in life more special than the bond that forms between a parent and a child. It’s a relationship that will bring endless years of joy, laughter, admiration and satisfaction.

The time you spend raising your children will be time that you will cherish forever. In the years to come, you’ll learn  more about attachment, love and protectiveness than you ever thought possible. But be prepared that not every day in your parenthood journey will be grand and glorious.

Like eveiything else in life, there will be ups and downs. You may find that some of the more stressful and exhausting days of being a parent will come early on, when you first bring your new son or daughter home. Bringing a baby into your house can literally turn your life upside down.

That’s because children don’t arrive with instruction manuals, and parenting is somewhat of a trial-byfire experience. If you’ve never had to care for a young child before, you may feel nervous, unsure of yourself and a bit lost. That’s to be expected — and is perfectly normal.

From baby-care basics to month-by-month development to common illnesses to health and safety, this book covers it all. There’s also a wealth of tips and advice for couples coping with the many changes to daily life that come with parenthood.
