The Fourth Trimester

"In this important work, Brink shows us something rare in the baby book world: an author that knows who parents are, what they need, what is supportive, and what is really good science. She knows the distinctions between value judgments and what we know to be true, scientifically. Brink's ideas couldn't be more appropriate to our historical moment."--James. J. McKenna, P.h.D., Director, Mother-Baby Behavioral Sleep Laboratory, University of Notre Dame "

"The Fourth Trimester will appeal to the audience of young parents. It has lots of helpful information and the idea of a fourth trimester is a helpful concept. Very readable!"--Penny Glass, Developmental Psychologist, Head of Child Development Program, Children's Hospital, Washington D.C.
