Description
Finding Your Way with Your Baby explores the complex emotional experiences of parents and babies in the first year. This updated edition draws on the latest research in neuroscience, psychoanalysis, and infant observation to provide a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by new parents.
The book acknowledges the often-overlooked darker side of family life, including bonding issues, ambivalence about the baby, depression, and the emotional turmoil of becoming a parent. By exploring these difficult emotions, parents can gain a sense of relief and learn to harness their feelings to transform situations and break negative cycles.
With real-life examples and insights from clinical practice, this book offers a valuable resource for parents and professionals alike, including health visitors, midwives, social workers, general practitioners, paediatricians, and childcare workers. It provides a helpful guide for navigating the emotional landscape of parenthood and finding a more positive way forward.
