Summary

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Your Baby Week by Week by Dr Caroline Fertleman.

The first six months with a new baby is a special and exciting time full of milestones and new experiences. This updated edition of Your Baby Week by Week explains the changes that your baby will go through in their first six months. Each chapter covers a week of their development so you’ll know when your baby will start to recognise you, when they’ll smile and laugh for the first time and even when they’ll be old enough to prefer some people to others! 

Paediatrician Dr Caroline Fertleman and health writer Simone Cave’s practical guide provides reassuring advice so you can be confident about your baby’s needs. Including: 

  • How to tell if your baby is getting enough milk 
  • Spotting when you need to take your baby to the doctor 
  • Identifying why your baby is crying 
  • How long your baby is likely to sleep and cry for 
  • Tips on breastfeeding and when to wean your baby 

Full of all the information and tips for every parent Your Baby Week by Week is the only guide you’ll need to starting life with your new arrival. 

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Good and helpful.
I feel you don’t have to wait each week to listen to each episode as it’s good to read ahead someone’s to be aware of what’s up and coming. Plus each baby is different so some of the info you might need to hear earlier/later or it’s a tip that doesn’t necessarily fit for just that week.
My wife read the book and I listen to this audiobook over about a week or two to catch up with her. Really easy when I was committing or cooking dinner.
Good bits to note like “when to see a doctor” and “what’s happening to mummy”.
It’s well written and the narration is perfect in my opinion.
The lady has a lovely clear British voice and delivered in a friendly but professional manner and tone- like your local health professional would.
P.S. this was our first baby born in Kingston in August 2022 and we’re still n our mid thirties (for reference)
Enjoy

Very useful information!

I listened while pregnant then listened to each section again once baby was here. It was SUPER useful! It gave me more confidence as a first time mum and now we have a very happy healthy baby :-)

Good book

Accurate in some parts and good advice. But also some harsh outdated advice. 7/10

Very useful

Very informative and concise; broken down week by week. Only criticism is in parts it’s a bit dated due when it was published.

its like having a mum great book!

The book is helpful.. she's like a mum telling you what you NEED to know.
insightful, and I started this book when my baby was 6 weeks so listening thorough week 1 to 6 was very true and seemed to match up with what's going on.. helpful reminders about child credits which I didn't know about was good. tlThe amount of food notices and sleep ampunts is great. It seems like it's an up to date book with relatable and current parts .
I had my baby in Jan 2023. Thank you for such a book I have shared the book with my other mum friends!

Some useful information but not for anxious mums

I see this more as a reference guide to read as your baby reaches each week, rather than a book to inform you during pregnancy. Overall some useful practical guidance, but it’s peppered with lots of ‘don’t do X or your baby could hurt themselves/suffocate/die’ which I found quite shocking. Would not recommend for any anxious mums out there.

This book helped me raise my baby

Loved this book so simple and helpful. I don't have many people to ask what to expect or what's 'normal'. Literally, as each week my baby grew the weekly chapters were guiding me. I would have been lost without it. So easy to listen to late at night with the baby in arms. God bless Dr Caroline and Simone Cave.
