Product Description
This comprehensive guide for new parents finding themselves overwhelmed dealing with the reality of parenting provides "parent-tested, pediatrician-approved" advice to allay their fears. Written in a compassionate yet authoritative tone by two moms who are also pediatricians, this guide covers a wealth of topics that often prove daunting in the first eight weeks of a child's life. Starting with "Into the Mouths of Babes" (the trials of breastfeeding) and "What Comes in Must Come Out" (a discussion of "pee and poop") and moving on through "Fever: Trial by Fire" and "Seeing Yellow: Jaundice," this guide offers sound advice that will enable parents to feel confident about their parenting skills. Hints on daily living, sleep patterns, crying, the art and science of diapering, and traveling with a newborn are also provided. |

read before baby comes by short stuff (southern california)  5 Stars
November 16, 2009
I think this is a great book. I am a pediatrician mom and I recommend this to my friends and patients before their first baby. It is especially great for people who are more nervous or controlling because it really helps to understand what is going to happen in the first month. It also doesn't terrify you as some other books do. It is not so useful after the newborn period but it is terrific for those first couple of weeks.

Lots of good info--I had read so many other books by the time I got this one so most of it was repeat, but it would have been great on its own.

baby facts by Shirley Mccormack 5 Stars
November 05, 2009
My last baby was born over 30 years ago so I needed a refresher for my new grandson. Needless to say, things have improved a lot! This book had many useful drawings and well arranged instructions. I especially like the burrito wrap details. It works!

Great book for first time moms by K. Dynge 5 Stars
October 08, 2009
I am so glad I found this book. The book is a quick read and packed full of useful information. I have tried to get through a few other books that talk about the first year of life, but this is first one I was able to sit down and read cover to cover. I really enjoyed the authors expertise and first hand experience. I have not had my baby yet but this book has helped me feel more prepared for what is to come.

Great information!!!! by Robert McRobert (Florida) 5 Stars
October 08, 2009
This book is a must for any new parents. The information is a life safer for your kids. This book is extremely informative, yet written in a way that can be easily understood. Please read this book.
I red that the vaccine is very important on the babies care as well so I red these books, I strongly recomended:
The Poisoned Needle: Suppressed Facts about Vaccination
The Vaccination Myth: Courageous MD exposes the Vaccination Fraud!
Vaccination Horror: An anthology of important works on vaccination pseudoscience
Vaccination: Spreading Leprosy and Death
Vaccination: State sponsored Murder
