By
medical definition ,a neonate (newborn) is a child from birth till
28 days (4 weeks) of age.
However, in actual
practice and in the experience of many mothers - this period is far
extended.
The birth of a
child becomes a matter of joy and celebration in the family.
In a day or two ,
when the crying starts , when sleepless nights and full working days
confront the parent, when the milk powder suddenly runs short and
the nappies are just never enough.... everything "seems to going
wrong" .
All the preparation
has gone haywire. The silly brat just howls and leaks - what do I do
?
