The first fully-illustrated handbook to help new parents cope with every aspect of childcare.Warmly written, brilliantly designed, thoroughly practical, and completely up-to-date, Day-by-Day Baby Care... This description may be from another edition of this product.
My pediatrican recommended this book when my now 13-year-old was born, and it's only slight hyperbole to say that my children are alive and well because Miriam Stoppard! The book gives very practical advice on how to wrap a baby, tips to dress a baby, how to bathe a baby, how to take a temperature, etc. My mother-in-law was in awe of my skills and never guessed that I was so proficient because I'd been reading the book before she came over! The book also has growth charts in the back where you can record your children's height and weight progress and compare it against several norms. I'm reviewing this book now because I'm on-line to order the upteenth copy for another friend who is expecting.
Wonderful reference for preparing for your first baby
