After nine months of trepidation, a ludicrous amount of shopping for every gadget you can imagine that will make 'The Arrival' smooth, you're now fully prepared (ha ha ha). Well as anyone who has been there will tell you, this is one situation that no amount of gadgetry can prepare you for. Not only that, but you'll find to your chagrin that well over half (if not all) of the gadgets that guilt and fear have induced you to buy, are more or less useless. No amount of electronic wizardry beats knowing how to do it yourself - as with most things in life - family, love, TLC, knowledge and experience wins every time. You can provide the love, but where's the experience? You can't rely on the mother-in-law, heck when she last had a child they still drowned free-thinkers for being witches. Here is a manual that de-mystifies the whole process of baby servicing and maintenance.

There's no jaw-grindingly sycophantic, cutesy language, no "do it this way or you'll bring up a psychopath", and very importantly no ghastly pictures of someone else's little darling being cooed over by preppy parents bathed in a god awful warm glow of smug self-satisfaction. Just down to earth step by step instructions, and some highly instructional (and more than often hilarious) diagrams - much as you'd see in a car manual. If ever the was a time when you needed a sense of humour it's now, and this indispensible and brilliant book will save your sanity.
