Many thousands of mothers have put Gina Ford's kind but firm routines into practice and put some calm back into their lives. “The New Contented Little Baby Book” gives reassuring and practical advice to new parents that works!

The Contented Little Baby Book, based on Gina Ford's personal experience (as a maternity nurse) of caring for hundreds of babies, was first published in 1999, establishing Gina as an influential new authority on baby and childcare issues. It remains one of the bestselling parenting books in the UK.

This completely revised edition of The New Contented Little Baby Book contains the most up-to-date advice available to parents. Using the feedback from numerous readers, Gina has further developed and elaborated on the information in her first book, while still clearly setting out her philosophy on simple feeding and sleeping routines.

By creating routines that match a growing baby's innate natural rhythms, Gina prevents the hunger, overtiredness and colic that can lead to excessive crying. Her secret is simple and amazing - a strategy developed through years of research and experience.
