The honest, practical guide a friend writes for you — if that friend had done all the research, made all the mistakes, and put it all in one place so you don't have to.
Most first-time parents piece together their knowledge from dozens of sources — and still feel underprepared.
One question leads to 14 tabs, contradictory answers, and more anxiety than you started with. At midnight.
Every list tells you what to get. None tell you what it's for, when you need it, or what to skip.
Not knowing what you don't know yet is the worst feeling. Most anxiety comes from not having a clear picture.
Not just a list. Not just a calendar. All four things together, in the right order.
Every item explained — what it actually is, why you need it, which brand we'd recommend, what you can get second-hand, and exactly when you need it so you're not buying everything at once.
Every appointment, scan, and vaccine in chronological order — clearly labelled NHS or private. Maternity leave for employed and self-employed. All with tick boxes so you can track what's done.
First foods in the right order — iron first, then allergens one at a time, then variety. All 14 allergens flagged with timing. What not to give before 12 months and why.
Once introduced, allergens need to stay in the diet weekly. Occasional exposure isn't enough — the guide flags this clearly so you don't undo your work.
Check the back of their neck instead. The guide explains how to dress baby for the room temperature — with a full TOG chart.
It's not a regression — it's a permanent change. The guide explains what's happening and your options, before it hits.
All three positions, and the honest truth: it gets much faster by month three. Put a film on.
Not just what your baby can do — specific things you can do to support development at each stage.
Everything covered — researched, explained, and organised so you don't have to.
Everything from your positive test to your toddler's third birthday. In one place. In the right order.
