This is a good overall book for the new parent. It talks about nursing issues, what the doctor will check each month at the baby's visit etc. This is not a book which tells you exactly what the baby should be up to each month developementally. I was looking for a book that would tell us how far the baby could see at 2 weeks old. The distance he could see at a month etc. This book barely touches upon it but it is still a valuable book to have for the new mother first time around.
picking up where the first book (What to expect when you're axpecting) left off, i love how this book handles every issue and answers every question a first time parent has ever wondered!... the way its written is very unique, covers every topic like ur the one asking the question and answers it very specific and descriptive.. with everything from month to month info and updates on ur baby's development to home remedies and feeding baby, selecting physician,even first aid!.. A MUST for new parents, single parents, even adoptive parents!
What to Expect the First Year - even if you think you know better. By the end of the 7 month it is the time to start thinking about what to do after arrival. It will be a wonderful and for shure busy time. If you think you can read and learn on the job forget it. It is the right to NOW to go and meet all your questions and fears NOW. And there area a lot of them. As an expecting father I can reassure you, if you are a man and you are expecting you MUST read it before the birth not after. Good luck and have much fun, it is the best and worst time in your life, enjoy it!!!
Very good tool for first time moms!!! Has a month-by month detailed description of everything to expect, and how the baby should be developing. Also has common ailments that you might come across and how to deal with them. The What to Expect series are great. I read the pregnancy one, and also plan to purchase the toddler years one.
I love the way it answers so many of my questions. It provides me with resources so that I don't have to run to the doctor for every little question. It has saved me money and time in medical expenses. It lets me know what is normal and what is not for each phase of my child's development. It is written in a clear and understandable way, and the author does not push any one view, but rather gives the facts up front. It is a great buy for any new parent.
