Great book

Really refreshing take on that wild first year. It skips the sugar-coating and gets real about the sleep-deprived, snack-in-one-hand-baby-in-the-other chaos—without making you feel like you’re doing it all wrong. Smart, funny, and actually helpful when you’re too tired to Google anything.

THE essential book.

Baby’s First Year is a wonderful resource for new parents! This audiobook dives into everything you need for those unpredictable first 12 months, covering everything from feeding tips and sleep advice to managing your own emotions and mental health. The author has a relatable, down-to-earth tone that makes the advice feel like it’s coming from a trusted friend who’s been through it all. The narration is gentle and engaging, making it easy to listen to even during those late-night feedings. I felt reassured and supported every step of the way.

A must for new parents

Absolutely loved "Baby's First Year" by Pixie Saytar! As a new parent, this audiobook has been a lifesaver. Saytar's approach to parenting is modern, positive, and incredibly effective. Her calm and reassuring voice makes for a pleasant listening experience.

Each chapter is filled with practical advice, covering everything from sleep schedules to nurturing emotional development. What I appreciate most is how Saytar emphasizes the importance of staying calm and positive, which has made a huge difference in my parenting style.

The tips are easy to follow and have helped me navigate the challenges of the first year with more confidence. It's clear that Saytar knows her stuff, and her best-selling author status is well-deserved.

I highly recommend this audiobook to any new parent. It's a great mix of expert knowledge and practical, real-world advice. A must-listen for anyone embarking on the journey of parenthood!
