Feeding and Nutrition - Baby & Child Care Handbook, #2

This book guides you through all the needs and requirements for breastfeeding, bottle feeding and introducing solids to your baby.

There is nothing quite like the feeling that comes from having a tiny head snuggled close against you, eyes closed, jaw moving rhythmically while emitting the primal sounds of satisfaction… it's the stuff that feeds the myth of blissful motherhood. There are few experiences like it – but it can involve tears and toil.

If you have made up your mind to breast feed, be prepared for well meaning 'friends' and relatives who may try to discourage you. If you cannot, or definitely do not want to breast feed, do not feel guilty. There are many ways to nurture your child through bottle feeding.

It also covers the important subject of allergies, together with the latest research, such as the LEAP study, of which Dr A. Fauci, US Director, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAD), who in 2018 ranked as the most highly cited researcher of all time, declared that: 'For a study to show a benefit of this magnitude in the prevention of peanut allergy is without precedent. The results of which have the potential to transform how we approach food allergy prevention.'

You will also have free access to Marina's website featuring over 100 video talks by world renowned pediatric experts, doctors and professors on a variety of childcare subjects. These are arranged according to the subject of each chapter in the book.
