Experiencing it was a different story. As she learned, the first few months of parenthood are much harder than anyone tells you. Written month-to-month in real time as LoBue proceeded through pregnancy and first-time parenthood, \u003cem\u003e9 Months In, 9 Months Out\u003c\/em\u003e integrates science and infant development with the personal journey involved in becoming a parent. LoBue also takes a researcher's lens to issues that are top of mind for new parents: breastfeeding, the sleep training controversy, gender development, the science (or lack thereof) behind the link between vaccinations and autism, and the debate over screen time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vanessa Lobue\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0190863382\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780190863388\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/02\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2019 pg. 82\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/17\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2019 pg. 62","brand":"Vanessa Lobue","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44054626533631,"sku":"9780190863388","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f76cf214-d355-48cd-99a0-d4d1657c950b.jpg?v=1685031046","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/9-months-in-9-months-vanessa-lobue-9780190863388","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
