Have you ever wondered what is going on inside your baby's mind as she stares up at you during a feed, babbles away in the playpen or relentlessly hauls herself back up after yet anther tumble? Using a series of questions babies might ask if only they could talk, the authors explore the early months of a baby's life - from the baby's point of view. Far from being passive, babies have extraordinary communication skills and capabiliites to express joy, anxiety and fear, feelings that largely go unnoticed because adults don't know what to look for. This book uncovers and discusses the joys, preoccupations, achievments and challenges that make up a baby's world, enabling you to take the best possible care of your baby. The book will provide a unique insight into what life is like for a baby in utero and during the first two years in the world outside, reveals the baby's emotional and physical needs and how parents can meet them successfully, and makes the latest scientific research on how and why babies develop as they do understandable to parents.
