Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What's insideWhat's normal, and what's not - peeling skin, jaundice, cone-shaped heads, swollen genitals, soft spots, sneezing, hiccups, and the strange noises newborns make. What each one means and when it passes.Feeding - how often, how much, and how to tell your baby is getting enough. Breastfeeding, formula, and combination feeding, with typical volumes week by week. Hunger cues, spit-up, burping and reflux.Sleep - what newborn sleep actually looks like in month one, safe sleep guidance, and how to gently support a rhythm without chasing a schedule that doesn't exist yet.Crying and soothing - why babies cry, what colic is, and the techniques that genuinely help.Diapers, decoded - a day-by-day guide to wet and dirty diapers, what each color means, and the outputs that signal feeding is going well.What to track and why - the small amount of record-keeping that makes your pediatrician visits useful.Looking after yourself - recovery, the emotional weight of the first weeks, and when low feelings need more than rest.When to call the doctor - a clear, organized list of warning signs by category: breathing, temperature, feeding, urine and stool, skin, and behavior. Plus the signs that mean go now rather than wait.Why this bookNo schedules to fail at. No judgement. No jargon.Written in plain English and organised around the questions new parents actually ask, with guidance compiled from current pediatric sources including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the CDC and the World Health Organization.Short enough to read in an evening. Clear enough to search at 3am.

You don't need to know everything. You just need to know what's normal - and what isn't.This book is general information for new parents, not medical advice, and does not replace care from your pediatrician or midwife.
