Babies need constant nurturing in the early years. They are completely helpless and utterly dependent on their mothers—and not just to feed them and change their diapers. So many people think this is all that goes on during this stage, and they could not be more wrong. 

Suzanne takes listeners on a journey to see what's really going on behind the scenes when Mom is home with her baby.

Have you (or has someone you know) had to convince your husband to live on less so you can stay home with the baby? If so, you’re in good company.
