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

Best choice to understand sleep regressions
Format: Paperback
Definitely my #1 go-to book to understand the phases and regressions my baby goes through.

Very Helpful
Format: Paperback
Thanks to a friend who told me about this book, I purchased it before we had our first baby, and it has been nothing but helpful. The concept of the wonder weeks is pretty accurate and it helped me to anticipate the major changes and leaps of growth my baby would be experiencing. It helped me to realize that when my baby is fussy or crying more than usual, it's because she is going through major leaps of growth and this has helped me to have a more understanding approach to parenting. The suggested games to play with baby are helpful. The best part is the checklist at the end of each chapter that helps you to keep track of important milestones based on age. ... show more

Unquantifiably helpful for a first time (or any!) mom
Format: Paperback
The information in this book is so helpful and eye-opening! It really helped me understand what my baby was going through physically and psychologically, which helped me play with and care for the baby much better and more confidently. The leap predictions are on point, the suggested activities are amazing, and the checklists are fun and engaging. I also love that there is no pushy advice in this book. I feel that any parenting style can be complemented with the Wonder Weeks as a guide. ... show more

Great book
Format: Paperback
This is a fun book to follow along your baby’s growth and milestones. I love all of the information and education you get on where they are at, what to expect, and how to get enough each leep easier. I liked this book more than the app

The jury is still out but starting to be convinced...
Format: Paperback
We are not first time parents, this is our second child... Baby is 11+ weeks old I think we're on Leap 3. Initially, when I read the second leap I thought this book was nonsense, our baby was being suddenly fussy and such but didn't realize until I looked at the calendar and saw our baby was indeed 7 weeks old and the 8 week leap was nearing. Our baby was born right about her due date, and then we hit 11 weeks and suddenly the baby is not sleeping well, like REALLY waking every 40 to 45 minutes, and then today ate less but slept a lot and I realize, the 12 week leap is upon us. Our baby seems to have the difficult phase during the week leading up to the leap. During the time, she's wanted to be held extra much / has had trouble sleeping, etc. This gives me hope that this sudden bout of sleeplessness is indeed the third leap. Will update the review when we come to the other leaps... but so far, this has been helpful. The writing is a bit odd because it's translated from Dutch. I've lived overseas and am familiar with the way non-English languages translate into English (most people won't notice this). It's not bad at all, just sounds a bit stilted. And one star deducted for the filler fluff added (because really there's not enough info for a full length book). It is also a bit ambiguous. You know, "your child may have this leap before or after" well then it's not really predictable then is it? It's sort of like, "Your child may sleep poorly or they may eat less or they may eat more or they may sleep more" lol so it's sort of like it could be true for anyone, in a way (or am I just too sleep deprived to fully absorb it??) I expected more science or studies referenced to explain the behavior / brain changes with baby. The book seems pretty simplified and not very scientific or psychological so I considered that maybe the theories in the book were just "made up" but seeing that the leaps (so far) have accurately coincided with my baby's noticeable (and quickly passing) behavioral changes, I give it the benefit of the doubt... Also because, thinking back, our first baby slept GREAT until the time that would coincide with her 4th leap... which is known to be a big one. Perhaps it would have helped to have this book then. We shall see if this book holds true... will update in a few months! ... show more

The closest thing to a daily development calendar

I’ve been telling everyone that I wish there was a daily calendar for baby development. This is the closest thing I’ve found so far, and it is terrific! So glad to have it as a tool.
