Congratulations. You're having a baby. Now the questions begin. Will I know what to do? Am I eating the right things? What actually happens during labour? And why does nobody warn you about the third trimester? So, You're Having a Baby, Now What? is the honest, hilarious and expert-backed companion that every first-time parent deserves. Written with warmth, humour and zero sugarcoating, this complete guide takes you from the very first conversation about trying for a baby, through every trimester, all the way to your little one's first birthday - and everything wonderfully chaotic in between. Inside this book you will find ¿ Pre-pregnancy planning: what to do, what to take and what to stop before you even begin trying, including fertility, nutrition, finances and emotional readiness. ¿ First trimester guidance (Weeks 1-12): managing morning sickness, fatigue, your first antenatal appointment and the emotional rollercoaster of early pregnancy. ¿ Second trimester guidance (Weeks 13-26): the honeymoon trimester, baby development week by week, scans, tests and preparing your home and relationship. ¿ Third trimester guidance (Weeks 27-40): the final countdown, managing symptoms, writing your birth preferences and knowing when to call your midwife. ¿ Labour and delivery: every stage of labour, all pain relief options from gas and air to epidurals, caesarean sections, and what to do when things don't go to plan. ¿ The fourth trimester (First 12 weeks): feeding your newborn, safe sleep, postnatal recovery, baby blues versus postnatal depression and the reality of life with a newborn. ¿ Your baby's first year (Months 4-12): development milestones month by month, weaning and starting solids, vaccinations, common illnesses and celebrating your baby's first year of life.
