From an international expert on infant-parent communication, Your Baby Is Speaking To You is destined to become a parenting classic. Through intimate access to babies and their families, Dr. Kevin Nugent and acclaimed photographer Abelardo Morell capture the amazingly precocious communications strategies babies demonstrate from the moment they are born.
Your Baby Is Speaking to You illustrates the full range of behaviors early smiling to startling, feeding to sleeping, listening to your voice and recognizing your face. The newest research including information on subtle and fleeting behaviors not seen or explained in any other book illuminates the meaning of the things babies do that concern and delight new parents:
the language of yawning
the rich range of cries, and how to understand their meanings
baby s earliest sleep smiles and sleep states, and what they signify
Your Baby Is Speaking To You delivers the information parents crave in gentle, accessible style while giving parents the confidence they need to respond to their own baby s way of communicating during the very first astonishing days and the months beyond.
