NOTES

"New Baby 101 - A Midwife's Guide for New Parents" covers preparation for baby's arrival and all aspects of care during baby's first 3 months. This comprehensive resource is available as a book and eBook, supported by practical "how to" videos created by experienced Midwife, Lactation Consultant, Mother and Grandmother - Lois Wattis. Australian parenting guru Pinky McKay's Foreword commends Lois' skilful way of explaining medical issues in easy to understand language, providing parents with clear information about common concerns. The New Baby 101 resources have been highly acclaimed by respected healthcare bodies - "Finally! The long awaited manual, and it does not disappoint. New Baby 101 - A Midwife's Guide for New Parents by Lois Wattis is just brilliant. New Baby 101 is written in plain language and does not contain medical jargon, yet it provides up to date evidence based information offering unbiased options/alternatives on a number of topics. Overall the guide highlights that there is no one right-way to parent… and most importantly advises parents to listen to their baby's cues and their own instincts. The take home message is that every mother/ baby combination are unique, so adapt the advice within this guide to suit your own story. This is a fabulous resource that I will gladly recommend." Australian Midwifery News, (16,3 Sept 2016) "New Baby 101 is organized, easy to read, researched, and evidence-based. The essentials discussed in New Baby 101 may prevent the spread of inaccurate information, and most importantly, offer parents the opportunity to make an informed decision about how to care for their newborn child. First time or seasoned parents will benefit from reading New Baby 101." International Journal of Childbirth Education (11,4 Oct 2016) Words of wisdom from the author: New Parents have so much to learn in a short time and every parent wants to do everything right, which no one can of course! Even the most capable, organised parents who are well prepared for their roles may feel totally overwhelmed by their new responsibilities. We live in a world of information overload so parents need to be discerning about the advice they receive, what they take on board, and what they ignore. New Baby 101 is your reliable go-to reference, alongside your trusted health professionals. Ultimately parents know their own baby best and can trust their instincts - if something doesn't feel right, it probably isn't right. Congratulations, and welcome to the wonderful world of parenting.
