Calm Parents Happy Siblings – Dr Laura Markham

There are few sounds more irritating than the He Did, She Said whine of siblings. Perhaps with the exception of toys being thrown at each other and the intolerable scream of a wronged brother.

Step in Dr Laura Markham, who appears to have solutions other than calling social services for respite.

There is advice in the book that may help stop the bickering, depending on how deep routed the sibling hatred is.

It’s probably best read with a cold gin and tonic and the shredded remains of the hope in your heart.

Breastfeeding Made Easy – Geraldine Miskin

There are so many breastfeeding help books around, but this one is actually one of the better ones. Why? firstly because it’s physically easy to open and read the thing due to its size, design and layout.

Secondly, because it’s a step by step guide that is more Haynes motor manual, but it actually works in terms of getting across the required information condensed into and easy and informative read.

There’s no emotion, nothing mumsy, absolutely nothing of irritation. The diagrams are easy to follow and the advice breathtakingly useful with the added bonus that it’s not coming from a condescending health care professional.
