Amazon.com Review
Is our baby eating enough? Is this much crying normal? How do I know when she is really sick? This hefty, 671-page guide to your babys first year is brought to you by the creators of the bestselling What to Expect When Youre Expecting. The three authors, all mothers themselves, are calm, clear, and encouraging as they tackle the first year of child-rearing, month by month. The easy-to-absorb, chronological format includes sections such as "What Your Baby May Be Doing," "What You Can Expect at This Months Checkups," "Feeding Your Baby This Month," "What You May Be Concerned About," and "What Its Important to Know."
Part Two addresses special concerns such as illness, first aid dos and donts, the low-birthweight baby, the adopted baby, becoming a father, and sibling relationships. Youll also find discussions of breastfeeding and bottlefeeding, selecting a physician for the baby, diapers and clothing, safety, and many ways of stimulating the babys development. The recipes for babies and toddlers in Part Three are useful, as are the recommended home remedies charts on common childhood illnesses height and weight and the thorough index. (A particular strength of the book is the authors careful attention to diet and nutrition for both mother and baby, incorporating the American Academy of Pediatrics latest recommendations on infant nutrition.) While some of the authors perspectives are controversial (such as whether to let your baby "cry it out" or not), this book remains one of the most comprehensive resources for new parents as they toddle through their babys first year.
