Publisher's Synopsis
When paediatrician Dr Bob Hamilton's video showing how to soothe a crying infant hit the web, he became a YouTube sensation, garnering over 15 million views in 10 days. With '7 Secrets of the Newborn', Dr Hamilton brings parents clear, sensible, warm advice on the first year with baby. Dr Hamilton covers topics such as: sleeping (teach them gently to do it themselves), vaccinations (get them, all of them), breast feeding (wonderful baby, if possible for mom), screen time (don't do it!), eating (let them make a mess), crying (the famous 'hold'), clothes (completely optional for the first six months), toys (simple and cheap are best). Dr Hamilton brings 30 years' experience as a paediatrician, father, and grandfather to the page. His advice is science-based, slightly retro, and strives for a supportive and healthy growing environment for babies and parents.
