by Pinky McKay

 

100 Ways to Calm the Crying addresses the reasons babies cry, from the normal developmental changes that may make them more sensitive, to painful conditions such as colic and reflux.

 

Along the way, Pink McKay offers gentle strategies to help you calm and connect with your baby, practical tips to help you cope with crying and sleepless nights, and ways to identify symptoms that may require professional help.

 

Pinky and her book were featured on A Current Affair in June. This book is also on the recommended reading list of the Australian Breastfeeding Association.
