First published in 1999, The Contented Little Baby Book has become one of the UK's bestselling parenting books, establishing Gina Ford as a trusted authority on baby and childcare issues, and helping parents develop feeding and sleeping routines for their babies.

Now, in this completely revised edition, Gina shares updated, practical advice for parents navigating their baby’s first year. Drawing on feedback from her readers and website members, she elaborates on the information in her first book, while clearly setting out her approach to creating simple, consistent routines that work with a baby's natural patterns of feeding and sleep.

This structured approach will help parents build confidence while supporting their baby's development during the first year, preventing the hunger, overtiredness and colic that can lead to excessive crying, and encouraging babies to sleep for their longest spell at night from an early age.

With detailed, prescriptive information on everything parents need to know, this book includes chapters on:

• Preparing for the birth of your baby
• How to establish a daily routine for your baby
• Milk feeding in the first year, including breast-feeding and bottle feeding
• Understanding your baby's sleep
• Introducing solid food in line with government and World Health Authority guidelines
• Managing common problems in your baby’s first year

Whether you are expecting your first child, or are experiencing difficulties with an older baby, this comprehensive guide contains all the expert guidance you need to help your baby feed and sleep well.
