Summary

**BASED ON THE MUMSNET BEST BADGE 2016 WINNER, TRULY HAPPY BABY**

Whether you’ve just had a baby or you’re about to welcome your new little bundle into the world, you probably have a LOT of questions …

I know I did! And I also know from first-hand experience with my three babies that one-size-fits all parenting doesn’t work. So this audiobook is to help you find out what will work for you and your baby when it comes to feeding, sleeping, wellbeing, lifestyle, and looking after yourself. I’ve included information and friendly advice I wish I’d been given before I became a mum for the first time, alongside some shortcuts and tips that worked for me.

I hope this audiobook will empower you during your first twelve months of parenthood to trust your own mummy intuition, and to care for your children in your own way – confidently and happily. We all have that intuition, we just need to learn to tune into it! This audiobook will equip you with the know-how you need to get you through the sleepless nights and concerns, to all the magical first moments. It’s the ultimate collection of things that worked for me as a new mum – and I hope it works for you, too.

Love, Holly xxx

This book is intended as a reference volume only, not as a medical manual. The information given here is designed to help you make informed decisions about you and your baby, and it should be used to supplement rather than replace the advice of your doctor or other trained health professionals. Therefore it is recommended that a qualified medical specialist is always consulted for advice.

Honest, easy listening

Really enjoyed this book. As an expecting first time mum I found the advice helpful and honest. Putting some fears and my mind at ease for worries I had and meeting societies expectations.
Holly's voice was also lovely and easy to listen to so far enjoyed it more than some American or robotic sounding books I've tried listening to previously.
Thank you!

So helpful as a first time mum

As a first time mum to be I wanted a book that covers all of the important stuff so that I can prepare for my bubbas arrival. This book didn't disappoint. Although simple it is lovely to have everything in one place.

Simple but detailed & thoroughly enjoyable

Holly narrates so well and gives all the information I feel I need to get started on my own baby journey. I’m now hoping she has done another one for the next steps, “if you haven’t done one Holly please do” 🙏🏾😃xx
My fave mummy/ baby journey book so far and it will be hard to beat. highly recommend! Xx
