I am so glad I chose to add this book to my collection of baby books, although I was disappointed to discover that it hadn't been necessary to purchase all of the others! This book is co-written by Denise Fields (of Baby Bargains fame), and pediatrician Ari Brown. The book offers sane, simple advice on what to do during your baby's first year. In addition to answering medical questions, the book offers advice on safety and education issues, and also gives helpful advice on sleeping and feeding. However, the best part of the book comes at the very beginning, when the authors specifically say that parents need to do what's best for them, and that not all advice works for every baby. (What a relief!)
I received the Baby 411 first edition from the hospital that I had my first child at. The book was a tremendous help, especially in the middle of the night. I answers just about any question a parent could have. I just love this book. This time, I bought three copies, since this is a newer edition, I purchased one for me, one for a friend, and one for my neice (having her first child). I would tell any parent to buy this book, it is a fantastic reference source to have in your home, while on vacation, and just in general.
I used this book with both of my pregnancies and both children. I felt it gave me the clearcut answers i needed, whether it be in the middle of night or too help second guess the doctor. i definetly recommend this book and i bought another one for a friends baby shower. i told her it would be her new baby bible
Aunt and Uncle suggested to buy the book. They are 42 and just received a gift from God, twins. These are their fisrt children. With how strongly they reccomend the book, I just had to buy it when I was told I am expecting my own bundle of joy. It is an excellect book for 1st time parents.
This book is very helpfull for us. My wife is reading it and giving me sections to read. I recoment it to anyone who is having a child
