Marina Petropulos Baby and Childcare Handbook

Marina Petropulos Baby and Childcare Handbook (Afrikaans) It is more 30 years since Marina Petropulos’s first Baby and Child Care Handbook was published and it has never been out of print in both English and Afrikaans , making it the runaway best seller in its field ¿ with millions of parents calling it their child care ‘bible’. Every aspect of how to care for your baby is covered : including planning for the birth, breastfeeding from day one; recognising and treating postnatal depression and dealing with the curse of colic ¿ to the practical aspects of bathing your baby and deciding whether to circumcise your son. Procedures and tests done in the nursing home are detailed and the meaning and treatment options of possible birth defects are compassionately explained. For those who cannot breastfeed, sense is made of the types of baby formulas that are available.
