ENGLISH DESCRIPCION

Swedish, feminist, and meticulous, this guide attempts to de-mystify the supposed absolute truths about pregnancy and parenting.

How can you know what is best for your baby if your mother-in-law, that blog you follow, and a magazine for first-time mothers offer contradicting alternatives? To what extent do we believe false myths just because they are so widespread? In the information era it can be very difficult to discern what really benefits you and your child, and the last thing that first-time parents need is a preponderance of opinions of dubious origin.

This book originates in Sweden, famous for its progressive politics and egalitarian maternity and paternity leaves, to show that many of the things we used to hold as true about raising children are no more than mere moralism. Beginning from a feminist perspective, two cutting-edge medical specialists dismantle the myths related to pregnancy and child-rearing, and replace them with solid scientific facts. While giving power back to women to make their own decisions, they defend the importance of egalitarian parenting, and offer advice and ideas for an equitable division of work, which translates into improved well-being for both baby and parents.
