Product Description
Provides practical advice and realistic guidelines on child development from birth to eighteen months, providing current information on well-child care provided in the New Zealand environment, reflecting New Zealand child rearing practices. While it does not set out to answer every question, identify every rash or predict every developmental step, it is a guide to the typical with some reference to the uncommon. It also offers up-to-date references for specialist services and support groups associated with issues concerning babies and toddlers. Month by month care to the age of 12 months is covered, with exercise programmes for the mother, as well as suitable recipes for mother and child, games to play and songs and rhymes to sing. Average developmental milestones are provided for each month, as well as checklists for home visits by Plunket, GP visits and immunisations.
