Book covers both sides of various issues
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I am a first time parent. I purchased this book because I wanted easy access to quality information that could help me understand how to care for my infant and understand his needs. For everything from diapering tips, fingernail cutting, poop consistency, nursing and so much more, I feel like this book offers decent advice. The book is separated into very convenient sections: * a list of "firsts" to help you learn proper newborn care * Birth to 3 months * 4 to 6 months * 7 to 9 months * 10 to 12 months * First year health guide This book also has advice for new dad's, experiences from hundreds of real people, postpartum advice (especially useful sexual advice), and also shows both sides of current issues such as breast v. bottle, pacifiers, circumcision, which diapers to use and much much more. It isn't perfect but it offers some great advice from experts and everyday people like you and me.

I bought BabyCenter and Babt 411 and liked this one much better. It really has everything you need to know edited in a very easy to follow and interesting way. The information is up to date and the different polls give you the parent's practical perspective. Completely recommend this book!
Great Book for new and veteran moms alike!

Babycenter ties together everything you need to know during the first year of your baby's life. I love that the book flows nicely and covers most everything you can or will need to know. The real life reviews are also great!
A must read for parents of babies!

I got this book after I become a mom for the third time. Even though Im an "experienced" mom, this book has helped me in ways that I cant explain. This book is like the perfect combination of professional advice with tips from parents like us. I would highly recommend this book, wether you are a first time mom, or mom of five.
Excellent resource, highly recommended

This book is fabulous. I was fortunate enough to sneak-preview the book and can't say enough about how good it is. Rather than the day-by-day development some books try to impose, this book is done in 3 month blocks (more realistic with real children). It highlights all of the things you need to know and does it in a simple, matter-of-fact manner. I also highly value the comments and balanced perspective brought by members of BabyCenter. All in all, I'd highly recommend it.
