...did you get to help you on what to do with your new born baby. this is my first and i am keen to get in to a routine. i have been recommended by people either 'the contented little baby' book or 'the baby whisperer'
do any of you experts have any suggestions?
thanks xx

The books are great for some parents though if you are wanting to follow a specific routine.
I liked the Contented Little Baby book but like Louise& Kade said we didn't follow it so closely as lo's are all different. But we did find lots of explanations of why he was doing certain things at certain ages, how to structure the day and if I was and am ever unsure I have a look.
Maybe have a look at both as it also depends on you too-maybe borrow one from someone? Good luck and hope you find something that suits you and your lo. x
Well I ended up buying both the books as i'm a first time mum too, read them from cover to cover when pregnant and followed neither when Dylan was born!!! That said, there are some good hints & tips in both, so my advice would be to buy both from ebay or Amazon 2nd hand for as little as poss, so you can then decide which routine is best for you & LO! I do still refer to them for ideas/suggestions.
Good luck with everything, it such an exciting time, nothing really describes it.

Thanks again xx
my friend had a very difficult time and bought gina fords contented baby book. she loved it but i never felt we needed it with cameron. its a good idea to have a read but dont overwhelm yourself with it all.
