The New Parents' Survival Guide: The First Three Months

No matter how much you long for and plan for a baby, no one is quite prepared for the impact their new arrival has on their life. Babies have a habit of not behaving the way the textbooks say they should. The New Parents’ Survival Guide is packed with practical advice and bite-sized tips on how to deal with common problems you are likely to encounter, including how to care for your newborn, solve the breast versus bottle dilemma, overcome breastfeeding woes, calm your crying baby, solve sleep issues, manage minor ailments, and take good care of yourself.

Wendy Green is the author of twenty books about health and The New Parents' Survival Guide: The First Three Months. She has also run a health project for the Deaf community for almost ten years.

Excerpts from her '50 Things You Can Do Today' Personal Health Guides published by Summersdale, have appeared in the Mail on Sunday and the Daily Express. Her Migraine title in the series reached 27 in Amazon's bestsellers list.

Her books are published in many other countries, including Brazil, India, Italy and Serbia.

She is passionate about health and believes that everyone can improve their health by taking more responsibility for their own wellbeing by eating well, taking regular exercise, managing stress and practising good sleep habits.

While completing a degree in health studies she studied health from all angles - including the psychological, biological, nutritional and social factors that affect our wellbeing. As a result, all of her books cover their topic holistically, with suggestions on how to overcome health issues through diet, supplements, exercise, psychological techniques and DIY complementary therapies.

She believes that adopting a healthier lifestyle needn't involve depriving yourself of your favourite foods, or following a punishing exercise regime but that making small, but long-term tweaks to your diet and lifestyle can lead to huge improvements in your health.
