When the newborn lands on the earth, we parents are overwhelmed by loads of advice from friends, relatives, neighbors which sometimes confuse us and may mislead us too. But thankfully there are lots of parents around who are really God's angels. Today I will share such angels’ tips that I received during my journey and never regretted adapting.
