How is your book helping others?
This book helps to educate parents on what to expect after the delivery of their baby. What mothers need to know about taking care of themselves for the first few days, what parents need to know about caring and feeding their baby, and what to expect over the next couple days during their hospital stay.
Most parents have not been patients in the hospital, so to be in the hospital for the delivery of their child/children can be a very anxiety-provoking time. Not only does mom need care but so do their baby/babies. This makes it twice as scary for parents. This guide goes over everything they can expect to happen with them, how to navigate those first few days, and how to handle a few things more after they are discharged.
With the nursing shortage ever-growing, education will no doubt be put on the back burner and patients will suffer because of it. This guide will help bridge that educational gap and help parents have a great, anxiety-reducing start to their new life together.
