Bringing your newborn home is both miraculous and disorienting. Victoire distills over a decade of hands-on postpartum doula care into an intuitive, bedside reference that answers your middle-of-the-night uncertainties with warmth and evidence.
Rather than prescribing rigid schedules, this book helps you read your baby's subtle communication cues, protect your own recovery, and create a calm home atmosphere rooted in mutual trust.
