Gives new parents the information they need to safely and effectively build their baby's muscle tone and strength and put their newborn on the path to a lifetime of wellness.-- - Baker & Taylor
Written in the authorâs gentle and accessible, yet authoritative, voice, this guide gives new parents the information they need to safely and effectively build their babyâs muscle tone and strength and put newborn on the path to a lifetime of wellness. 30,000 first printing. Illustrations. - HARPERCOLL
A revolutionary work that guides new parents in helping their baby form healthy movements, strong muscles, and a fit body during the childâs critical first year of life, filled with vital information and over 400 full-color photographs that clearly show how to create a strong foundation for a babyâs musculoskeletal health and future wellness
A childâs first steps are one of the great miracles in lifeâone we think of as a natural, essential, intuitive process. But just as new parents foster positive digestive, emotional, and intellectual growth, we cannot leave it to nature and instinct alone to ensure that infants develop the strong musculoskeletal foundation they need.Little bodies are malleable: nerves are elongating, bones are hardening, muscles are strengtheningânewborns are a never-ending process of physical change. The problem is that the car seat, the bouncer, the carrier, the crib, the pack-n-playâthe very devices modern parents depend on for hands-free parentingâleave that precious developing bundle at the mercy of gravity and passive, bodyweight-based alignment.
Shaping Your Babyâs Foundation gives new parents the information they need to safely and effectively build their babyâs muscle tone, strengthen the childâs growing body, and set their newborn on the path for a lifetime of wellness. Shaping Your Babyâs Foundation isnât about hitting milestones (for example, walking early can mean a child missed some key areas of strengthening at earlier stages), itâs about growing well. Jen Goodman gives parents the tools they need to give their baby a body that will be strong and balanced by the time the child is vertical. By helping a baby meet gravityâs challenges during the first year of life, this book vastly increases the chances of that baby later remaining strong, fit, and healthy as a toddler, teen, and adult.
Written in Goodmanâs gentle and accessible, yet authoritative, voice, and aided by over 400 full-color photographs to guide parents step-by-step through the first year of their babyâs life, Shaping Your Babyâs Foundation is a revolutionary parenting bible for a new generation.
