The Wonder Weeks

The Wonder Weeks reveals what's going on inside baby's mind.

Including a bonus chapter with everything about the relationship between sleep and leaps, as well as unique insight into your baby's sleeping behavior.

The book includes: * Week-by-week guide to baby's behavior* When to expect the fussy behavior, what this implies (cranky, clingy, crying (the three C's) behavior) and how to deal with these regression periods (leaps)* A description from your baby's perspective of the world around him and how you can understand the changes he's going through* Fun games and gentle activities you can do with your child* Unique insight into your baby's sleeping behaviour The book is based on the scientific- and parental-world-changing discovery of a phenomenon: all normal, healthy babies appear to be more fussy at very nearly the same ages, regression periods, and sleep less in these phases.

These age-related fluctuations in need for body contact and attention (regression periods) are related to major and quite dramatic changes in the brains of the children.

These changes enable a baby to enter a whole new perceptual world and, as a consequence, to learn many new skills.

This should be a reason for celebration, but as far as the baby is concerned these changes are bewildering.

He's taken aback--everything has changed overnight.

It is as if he has woken up on a strange planet.

He needs you to guide him and understand what he is going through!

Get ready to rediscover the world all over again with your baby...

Bonus: Sleep, and the lack of sleep...

that's something we all have to deal with when we have a baby.

The bonus chapter includes everything about the relationship between sleep and leaps, as well as unique insight into your baby's sleeping behavior.

Hint: did you know your baby learns (and there's a lot of brain activity) during those little, 'light' sleeps?
