Baby care
Caring for your newborn baby and through to the end of his toddler stage is both rewarding and challenging. Making sure he gets the best care, love and nurturing will be the guiding force of your life over these first few formative years of his life.
Holding and handling baby
In the first few weeks of life your baby will seem very vulnerable, and many parents are rather nervous of picking up their newborns, fearful that they may somehow accidentally damage their child. It's important to get used to holding your baby properly, not just for your baby's comfort but for your own sake; you'll never manage to feed or bath her successfully if you are unsure about how to hold her.
