A revolutionary new approach to caring for your baby's needs from a respected Australian GP.

Did you know there are things that you can do to help your baby cry and fuss less? Did you know that many parents experience unnecessary disruptions to their sleep at night? Are you longing for a less exhausting, deeper connection with your little one?

The first months after a baby’s arrival can be exhausting, and attempts at quick fixes are often part of the problem. Some popular approaches accidentally interfere with a healthy night’s sleep, but we can change these. And there are many ways to help your baby cry less.

The Discontented Little Baby Book gives you practical and evidence-based strategies for helping you and your baby get more in sync, and more sleep. Dr Pamela Douglas offers a path that protects your baby’s brain development so that your little one can reach their full potential. Amidst life’s extraordinary challenges, Dr Pamela Douglas shares practical strategies not only for cherishing your baby but also for nurturing your own rest and vitality.

With real-life stories from other parents, advice on dealing with feelings of anxiety and depression, and answers to your questions about sleep, development, reflux, allergies and tongue-tie, The Discontented Little Baby Book is a compassionate revolution in baby care.
