The number-one bestselling, essential parenting guide for all first-time mums and dads, by Australian paediatrician Dr Golly. There's no better parent for your baby than you! Dr Daniel Golshevsky – also known as Dr Golly – is a paediatrician and father of three who has spent years working with thousands of babies. Every newborn is different, but he knows that every parent can learn to understand their baby, tap into their innate parenting instincts, and thrive – not just survive – during the first four weeks. Your Baby Doesn't Come With a Book is Dr Golly's comprehensive, accessible and reassuring guide to preparing for the first few days and weeks of your baby's life: from prepping your home and getting ready for the hospital, to knowing what to expect in the first few days, and establishing a good sleep routine while dealing with common infant situations, such as breastfeeding, sleep and settling, rashes, and colic. With a focus on empowering parents and protecting mothers, Dr Golly turns up the volume of that innate parental instinct to maximise parents’ understanding of their baby’s cues – everything from tired/hungry signs and awake times to feeding schedules and the all-important poo watch – and bring everyone closer to a full night’s sleep. Most importantly, Dr Golly believes in the power of dads and non-birthing, non-breastfeeding parents to step up into a primary caregiving role from the moment their baby arrives. Your Baby Doesn’t Come With a Book covers EVERYTHING you need to know:Preparing your homeWhat dads can doUnderstanding your baby’s cuesHow to feed, settle, swaddle and bathPlus – Dr Golly's famous active burping technique!Dr Golly's revolutionary programs have helped thousands of parents establish happy, steady rhythms with their babies, with benefits for the whole family!Reviews:“We rave about Dr Golly to everyone we meet! ?????” –Gretta Van Riel“I wish I had this book when I was pregnant with our first child. ?????” –Rachael Finch"There are a lot of baby books out there that aren’t worth your money or time.

''The lessons and practices here will shift a sense of chaos to one of clarity and a mindset of fear to one of hope'' Margaret Heffernan, bestselling author of Wilful Blindness ___________________________________________________________________________________How often do you interrupt? How often do people interrupt you? Can you remember the last time someone listened to you all the way through your thinking?In a time when communication is more challenging than ever and relationships need to be nurtured, listening to one another could not be more important. In her new book, Nancy Kline, bestselling author of Time To Think, suggests that for us to radically improve our communication we should make the propmise ''I won''t interrupt you''. This promise matters because when we interrupt each other, we interrupt our thinking, and that interrupts the quality of everything we do. By making this promise to our colleagues and loved ones we can deepen our relationships, increase our productivity, and enjoy deeper, richer conversations. It may, in fact, be the most important promise we ever make. Nancy has spent the last three decades researching independent thought and the barriers that prevent us from thinking for ourselves. In this book she tells us the truth about the damage that interruption can cause, she shares case studies and stories from her work with clients, as well as simple ways we can improve our communication, and change our lives. ___________________________________________________________________________________''This generous, useful and important book is a delight to read and will fundamentally change the way you interact with people'' - Mikael Krogerus and Roman Tschäppeler, authors of The Communication Book ''This timely and persuasive book shows us that the foundation for independent thinking is the promise to actually listen, without interruption, to what others have to say'' Cal Newport, bestselling author of Digital Minimalism
