Synopsis Longtime pediatrician and child-care expert Karp illuminates the inner workings of a child's first experiences in order to help parents learn how to deal with them. With a focus on four areas--the fourth trimester, the calming reflex, the "five s's" (swaddling, stomach/side position, shushing, swinging, and sucking), and the cuddle cure--Karp provides a road map to a healthy parent-baby relationship. He’s also the author of THE HAPPIEST TODDLER ON THE BLOCK.
