Book Description

The Complete Mumsnet Guides brings together the wisdom of Pregnancy: The Mumsnet Guide, Babies: The Mumsnet Guide and Toddlers: The Mumsnet Guide. It is packed full of the advice, reassurance and down-to-earth humour of the hundreds of thousands of mums (and a fair few dads too) who have swapped recommendations and war stories on Mumsnet.com, distilled and presented in a way that is both accessible and authoritative. From hormones to hypnobirthing, stretch marks to swollen ankles, birth plans to births-not-so-planned, Pregnancy: The Mumsnet Guide is the essential birthing bible for every parent-to-be. Babies: The Mumsnet Guide then takes you through everything from breastfeeding, colic and getting some sleep to debates about parenting gurus and the best form of childcare, by way of a fair bit of gore and the odd bit of flagrant silliness about postnatal vaginal circumference and baby names. Finally, Toddlers: The Mumsnet Guide carries you on through behaviour and discipline, potty training, food, sibling rivalry, returning - or not - to work, travel and education. This is the indispensable guide from the frontline of parenting.
