Most babies have predictable behavior. Parents who have a head start with some advance knowledge of what to expect in their baby’s first few days of life will have more confidence when they meet their baby. Babies and mothers change remarkably from day one, to day two, to day three. The goal of the lactation consultant who has written Translating the Language of the Newborn is to instill common sense care into the first three days of a baby's life outside the womb. Parents' questions on formula feeding, breastfeeding, lactation, latching on, burping, hunger signals, crying, sleep patterns, and more are answered from the newborn's perspective and in the voice of the baby. This little book is very short, easy to read, and is an excellent reference for any new mommy or daddy.
