Poor Moms! A Guide to the Baby That Could Be Given in the Maternity Ward

"Poor Moms! A Guide to the Baby That Could Be Given in the Maternity Ward" – a caring support for all anxious mothers. Pediatric urologist, surgeon, and father of two little ones Alexey Ranshakov explains all stages of a child's life – from birth to graduation – without complicated medical terms and with humor. You will understand when it is really worth worrying and when it definitely is not. The goal of the book is to show that most of the problems parents face as their child grows are not terrible and are often easily solvable. No wonder patients are satisfied – "There should be more knowledgeable doctors like this who do not prescribe 100500 medications 'just in case' and clearly explain everything to anxious moms and dads." The author uses specific examples to clarify the pitfalls of complementary feeding (meat is better than zucchini) and potty training, which tasks are worth delegating to dad, and what to do if dad is shirking, which colds to consider "contagious"; he gives practical advice on how to survive the three-year and teenage crises, and much more useful recommendations for parents to use every day. "My goal is for parents to have less anxiety in their lives," says Dr. Ranshakov. The child is not only the main character of the book but also a full-fledged co-author, making the reading engaging!
