Eight pages. Print it and put it on the fridge for week three.

It is short on purpose: when the fussy stretch starts and when it ends, why it is always the evening, what is normal and what is a call to the pediatrician, what actually helps and why, and a six o'clock plan for the whole house. I will also send a short note each week until the baby comes. Nothing to buy, nothing to do.

General information from one grandmother's experience, not medical advice. Your pediatrician knows your baby; when in doubt, call.
