19.99 €
This book will help you navigate the deluge of information that bombards parents in the early years of parenting.
Should you choose breastfeeding or artificial feeding? Should the baby sleep in a crib or prefer co-sleeping? Should the child be immunized? Use diapers or practice early potty training? Every parent from the first days of a child's life faces a mass of new questions. How not to drown in a sea of conflicting information and realize that you are doing the right thing, if relatives and friends advise one thing, and doctors say another? Economist and mother of two children Emily Oster considers topical questions about parenting, based on scientific facts, statistics, research. Her previous book, "Calm and Confident. Why Common Pregnancy Perceptions Are Wrong and What You Really Need to Know" helped many expectant parents prepare for the birth of their baby. In her new book, Emily debunks myths about parenting in the early years. The first part covers medical issues: checkups, newborn weight loss, and a woman's physical recovery from labor. The second part focuses on the issues that arise in the first year of a child's life, from choosing the type of feeding to hiring a nanny. The third part covers the period from the baby's first steps to kindergarten age. How much time can children spend in front of the TV screen? How to potty train? How to organize early learning?
