Have you ever thought about having a baby? Do you want to learn more about the pregnancy process? Are you not quite sure if you are ready to bring a child into the world? Many women dream of having a child. The one thing that is required, though, is not talked about a lot. That’s the actual pregnancy. Those nine months plus period changes a woman and her body, and no two women have the exact same experience. This can be a very scary time, and then the actual labor brings about its own set of fears. Not to worry, though, this audiobook is here to help.

Babies don't automatically know how to sleep through the night; they need to be taught. The Sears family has learned from decades of pediatric practice, bolstered by their own parenting experiences, that different babies have different nighttime temperaments - and, of course, different families have different lifestyles. Instead of espousing the kind of "one method fits all" approach advocated in other baby sleep guides, the Sears family explains how you can create a sleep plan that suits the needs of your entire family.

Mayim Bialik was the child star of the popular 1990s TV sitcom Blossom, but she definitely didn't follow the typical child-star trajectory. Instead, Mayim got her Ph.D. in neuroscience from UCLA, married her college sweetheart, and had two kids. Mayim then did what many new moms do - she read a lot of books, talked with other parents, and she soon started questioning a lot of the conventional wisdom she heard about the "right" way to raise a child. That's when she turned to attachment parenting.

Wow, is this book judgy.
If you’re having any issues with breastfeeding or mom guilt, definitely find another source of information that won’t make you feel worse (and/or want to throw your audiobook out the window). If you’re able to overlook the Judgy McJudgerson tone of the authors, though, this book does have a lot of helpful breastfeeding information.
