Synopsis

A
revolutionary work that guides new parents in helping their baby form healthy
movements, strong muscles, and a fit body during the child’s critical first year
of life, filled with vital information and over 400 full-color photographs that
clearly show how to create a strong foundation for a baby’s musculoskeletal
health and future wellness

A
child’s first steps are one of the great miracles in life—one we think of as a
natural, essential, intuitive process. But just as new parents foster positive
digestive, emotional, and intellectual growth, we cannot leave it to nature and
instinct alone to ensure that infants develop the strong musculoskeletal
foundation they need.

Little
bodies are malleable: nerves are elongating, bones are hardening, muscles are
strengthening—newborns are a never-ending process of physical change. The
problem is that the car seat, the bouncer, the carrier, the crib, the
pack-n-play—the very devices modern parents depend on for hands-free parenting—leave
that precious developing bundle at the mercy of gravity and passive,
bodyweight-based alignment.

Shaping
Your Baby’s Foundation gives new parents the information they
need to safely and effectively build their baby’s muscle tone, strengthen the
child’s growing body, and set their newborn on the path for a lifetime of
wellness. Shaping Your Baby’s Foundation isn’t about hitting milestones
(for example, walking early can mean a child missed some key areas of strengthening
at earlier stages), it’s about growing well. Jen Goodman gives parents the
tools they need to give their baby a body that will be strong and balanced by
the time the child is vertical. By helping a baby meet gravity’s challenges during
the first year of life, this book vastly increases the chances of that baby later
remaining strong, fit, and healthy as a toddler, teen, and adult.

Written
in Goodman’s gentle and accessible, yet authoritative, voice, and aided by over
400 full-color photographs to guide parents step-by-step through the first year
of their baby’s life, Shaping Your Baby’s Foundation is a revolutionary
parenting bible for a new generation.
