Sumario:The first three months of a baby's life is an outside-the-uterus period of intense development, a biological bridge from fetal life to preparation for the real world. The fourth trimester has more in common with the nine months that came before than with the lifetime that follows.

Combining the latest scientific findings with real-life stories and experiences, Susan Brink examines critical dimensions of newborn development.
