Figure out what your baby is thinking from the moment
they are born.
Your baby has a strong desire to communicate, but it isn’t always easy to work
out just what they are trying to tell you. In this fascinating, research-led
book, parenting author Tanith Carey and Clinical Psychologist Dr Angharad
Rudkin explain just what your new baby might be thinking, in 75 typical
scenarios, from newborn to two years old.
What’s My Baby Thinking? looks in depth at your baby’s brain
development, the neuroscience of behaviour, how babies learn, attachment, and
communication. From ‘Does My Baby Recognise Me?’ and ‘When will my baby stop
crying?’ to ‘Why won’t my toddler share?’ and ‘Is my toddler old enough to have
a friend?’, this book explores everyday parenting experiences to help you see
the world from your baby’s point of view.
Fully illustrated, and packed with practical advice on topics such as sleep
development and separation anxiety, this fascinating book is a must-have
resource for every new parent.
