Overview

Figure out what your baby is thinking from the moment they are born. Your baby has a strong desire to communicate, but it isn’t always easy to work out just what they are trying to tell you. In this fascinating, research-led book, parenting author Tanith Carey and Clinical Psychologist Dr Angharad Rudkin explain just what your new baby might be thinking, in 75 typical scenarios, from newborn to two years old. What’s My Baby Thinking? looks in depth at your baby’s brain development, the neuroscience of behaviour, how babies learn, attachment, and communication. From ‘Does My Baby Recognise Me?’ and ‘When will my baby stop crying?’ to ‘Why won’t my toddler share?’ and ‘Is my toddler old enough to have a friend?’, this book explores everyday parenting experiences to help you see the world from your baby’s point of view. Fully illustrated, and packed with practical advice on topics such as sleep development and separation anxiety, this fascinating book is a must-have resource for every new parent.
