Critic reviews

Your Baby Week By Week is a brilliant handbook for new mums. Small babies take up lots of time, particularly in the first six months, so the bite-sized approach to topics such as crying, feeding, sleeping and weaning is perfect for helping mums through all the challenges of the early days and inspiring them to feel confident.

Very helpful as a first time mom

I really looked forward to listening to each chapter weekly as my son has grown. I’m a first time mom and this book was super helpful.
