Description

Everything a new parent needs to know about their baby’s 10 magical “leaps”―and when to expect them―in a new, modern sixth edition of The Wonder WeeksThe Wonder Weeks answers the question, “Why is my baby cranky, clingy, and crying?” with helpful guidance. Maybe they’re experiencing a leap in brain development, after which new skills are mastered, discoveries are made, and perceptions evolve. Fussy behavior might signal that great progress is underway! Better yet, these phases occur on similar schedules for most babies―as explained and mapped out in this book―so parents can anticipate the “stormy weeks” that precede the “sunny weeks.” Based on decades of research, this fully revised sixth edition covers the first 20 months of a baby’s life and includes:The top 10 things to know and remember about a leapFun games to support brain developmentFill-in-the-blank checklists to help better understand personality and behavior traitsScience-based explanations about sleepFresh insight and recent commentary from new parents who’ve used The Wonder WeeksAnchor moments to keep new parents sane, especially when they are exhausted and discouragedWith 2 million+ books sold, and 4 million+ downloads of the corresponding app, The Wonder Weeks has struck a chord. Join the phenomenon that has been embraced by celebrities, social media influencers, and parents worldwide. Black & white illustrations throughout Read more

    • A Sanity Saver!!
Trying to figure out if you're doing "the right thing" for your baby is hard. Super hard. Especially when they cannot yet speak or clearly communicate just what they need. And when they go through "leaps," as outlined in this book, it's particularly stressful, because you're constantly wondering if their sudden crankiness and generally unruly disposition is because you're doing something "wrong." I found this book to be such a sanity saver for these periods of growth. Instead of driving myself mad wondering what was wrong, I was [mostly] able to shift my mindset to an understanding that what was happening was completely normal and healthy, and I gained a huge appreciation for the process of development that I don't think I would have otherwise been able to view in the same way. It made it so much easier to remember to take a deep breath and just ride it out when we were in hour two of trying to get the little one to sleep, or wearing a track in the living room carpet a 3am...! I also found a great amount of solace in the author's repeated reminders that all people are different, so don't compare your baby to other babies to decide who is "ahead" or "normal," but instead watch your child closely to see what THEY are interested in exploring, and support them on their journey. It was also very reassuring to me that they continually reminded the reader to remember that the skills/developmental milestones that are outlined for each leap are the earliest possible time which the lists of milestones may appear. In other words, no worries if your child doesn't display the behaviors until a later time. We also downloaded the companion app, which I only really found helpful because then I could look at the built-in calendar to see when we were approaching the start of a new leap. Some of the videos and things were good, too, but if you're going to get only one, get the book for sure! Have recommended this book to every other parent I know. ... show more

    • Great book to understand Baby!
Love how detailed this book is at every stage. Knowing what’s coming has helped us understand when a “leap” does happen and not be too surprised by a change. Definitely one of the best parenting books we’ve found!

    • Waste of time
The only good thing out of this purchase it that it was digital. Amused with the fact this is a best seller! There's been nonsense repeated so many times it felt like this book is written for women with mental issues. (in that case, this has to be mentioned somewhere). Also the timing of saying how it is going to be difficult for fathers as well, just like there is just one parent to a baby, is soo bizarre, of course it is going to be difficult for them as well they are also human beings with feelings; naturally they can get scared, depressed, frustrated etc. Does the author imply that a pregnant person is consumed with herself and is so selfish that does not care at all about her partner? Further, they are 'opening america' by writing that baby's sleeping regime can be completely different from yours and can spend nights awake, can you imagine? Or another 'eye opener', that you need to take care of yourself, because otherwise you won't have energy to take care of your baby and husband. The word *problem* is mentioned soo many times, at some point I thought I was reading a math book. I just don't get it, if a parents' perspective (dictated by this book) of having a baby is going to be synonymous with this word, why on earth conceive one. Yes it is going to be hard, but calling everything a problem should not be the case in my opinion. The part about melatonin in babies has been written, rephrased, paraphrased, explained sooo maaaany times it was just awkward. Moreover, there was a mismatch of the ideas about baby sleeping better after bath time, following with the a recommendation confusing previous idea. This obnoxious, even offensive new writing style, which is repetition of same ideas written in different ways, is soo upsetting the just want to make us stupid and deteriorate brain capabilities. What is the point of saying same thing over and over again, just to be printed on more pages?! This books has lots of paren't 'examples', which mostly proves authors ideas. Which look like pieces of ideas taken out of the context from social media and/or somewhere else. If I would have wanted to listen to random ppls opinion I would have gone online and would have done my research, I wouldn't be purchasing a book. Considering, I don't even know who those people are, and if they are real parents. The instructions to fill in the list is just laughable....In the end saying how a parent would unravel baby's personality.. do you think that you can do it without their magic list?...hmm What is most important, it felt like book was written for a person, or most likely for an alien, who does not have any instincts, or has never ever had any experience with the baby. I most definitely do not like people who wrote the book and authorized it to be printed. ... show more
