The prospect of bringing a tiny baby home when you already have a toddler can be extremely daunting. Life with a newborn baby is tiring and challenging enough but with a demanding older brother or sister to deal with too, how do you cope? Gina Ford's practical tips and sanguine advice will calm and reassure all panicked parents. A major feature of the book is the adaptable routines, specifically designed to help new parents structure their day to meet all the needs of their toddler and their new baby, and still have time for lots of cuddles. By using Gina's easy-to-follow methods not only will new parents have a contented baby who feeds regularly and sleeps through the night from an early age, but also a happy, involved toddler who remains calm and cooperative during this unsettled time.
