The New Baby 101 APP is a valuable resource for new parents seeking to have their most frequently asked questions answered instantly. Lois Wattis is a Clinical Midwife who specialises in Lactation Consultancy, working in direct contact with new parents in a busy hospital setting.
“As a Midwife, Lactation Consultant, Mother and Grandmother I am constantly reminded that new parents need an ‘owners manual’ to take with them as they walk out of the hospital carrying their newborn home. New parents have so much to learn in such a short time, and every parent wants to do everything right – which no one can, of course. I understand the mixture of joy and anxiety experienced by new Mums and Dads who are often overwhelmed by the steep learning curve they are negotiating as they develop skills and understanding about caring for their precious new baby. In their blurry state of elation and sleep deprivation, they simply can’t take in all the information they need in the few days they are in hospital”.
New Baby 101 App offers answers to the most common questions and concerns that parents express in the early weeks. All the information is reliable and based on up-to-date research. The FAQ’s can be accessed by individual topic, or by purchasing all topics on the APP. The same topics are covered in more detail with illustrations and videos in the New Baby 101 EBook.
Even the most capable, organised parents who are well prepared for their new roles realise there is so much to learn, and they often feel totally overwhelmed by their new responsibilities. I recognised there is a need for a concise, easy-to-find reliable resource for new parents who are negotiating this steep learning curve. I know there isn’t much time for reading and this generation of parents expect instant information via the internet and/or their phone. This can also be a time of information overload so parents need to be discerning about advice received from well-meaning others and the internet. Remember, if it doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t right! Parents need to trust their instincts as they already know their baby better than anyone else.
So, new parents, here is your practical guide for the first few months of your parenting journey. These early weeks are precious even though they pass in a blur of elation and sleep deprivation. You can trust the information provided in New Baby 101 is based on the best evidence and research and my vast practical experience helping new parents. This App will enable you to enjoy your babymoon – the first months of your life with your new baby. Congratulations! At last - the information parents want - instantly available - New Baby 101 APP – A Midwife’s Guide for New Parents. Enjoy!
