Love this book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was refreshing to read such an educational, information-packed book that was written in a light-hearted and at times humorous tone. The "myth/fact" format also helped to make it an easy read. I was really surprised to learn how many myths I have fallen victim to. I would recommend this book to any parent or grandparent (my mom also read it and I find her quoting it to me at times)!
Wonderful Book!!!

Baby Facts: The Truth about Your Child's Health from Newborn through Preschool As a mother and grandmother, I totally endorse this book!! I wish that I'd had it when my children were small. Dr. Adesman addresses all the "old wives" tales and current trends in a smart, witty, crisp and humble fashion. (He even admits the myths that he and his pediatrician wife succumbed to while raising their 3 children.) He also points out when you should consult your doctor. My daughter-in-law loves this book as a mother of 2 pre-schoolers. Also, the cover is beautiful!! I will be giving this as a baby shower gift for years to come.
A "must read" book for new moms!

As a pediatrician, I initially skimmed this book out of curiosity to see if there were any pediatric myths that I innocently believed. Wow, I'm glad I did! I was surprised at how many myths even I believed were true! Reading "BabyFacts" will make me a better pediatrician, mother, and overall "advice giver." I am now recommending this book not only to my patients, but to my colleagues and friends with young children.
Best Baby Shower Gift Ever!!!

I bought this book to give to sister for her baby shower and ended up buying one for myself and everyone else I know who is having a baby!! The information in this book is invaluable and answers alot of questions that I wanted to ask my pediatrician but forgot/ felt foolish asking. I highly recommend buying this book for either yourself or anyone who has young children!
