Summary: You need this book!
Comment: I think this is one of the best all-in-one books you'll ever have. I've used it for my last 2 kids and wish I'd had it with my first. You can look up just about any question you have, find answers and solutions and excellent suggestions quickly. More times than I can count, I used this for breastfeeding problems, sick kids, behavorial issues, normal things to expect, weird questions, normal questions, you name it! It has been VERY good for my emotional health and my children's emotional and physical health. You'll get lots of ideas you won't get elsewhere.

Comment: ...if you're looking for a one size fits all child rearing formula!
This book recognizes the fact that babies are just as individual and unique as their parents. It provides a wealth of information about baby care as well as a variety of ideas to help balance family life with an infant. Most importantly, the author makes it clear that attachment parenting is philosophy anyone can follow. Parents need not worry about following a checklist or formula, they can simply be parents.

Summary: Essential!
Comment: This is a must have for anyone about to have a baby. I am a doula so I've had to read just about everything there is on baby books. This is my top favorite, and all of the Sears books are good. It has a very extensive amount of information. You can find just about anything you need to know here.
I deducted one star for two reasons: 1. Though there are some pictures, I feel they could have more. Sometimes when you're an exhausted parent it's easier to just glance at a picture for some help, rather than trying to read page upon page without falling asleep. and 2. The information on vaccines is that of a doctor's point of view so of course you're not getting the whole truth. But anyone with a brain can weed out what they need from this. All in all, best book out there!

Summary: The Baby Book Review
Comment: This book has been my baby bible. I referred to it daily when my baby was just months old. Now that he is 15 months old, I still use it for a great reference! I highly recommend it!

Summary: If you buy one "Baby How-To" book, make it this one.
Comment: Buy this book and keep it on the shelf for reference! This is the one book I go back to time and time again for all my raising babies questions. From Fevers to Feeding, how to play with baby, how to WEAR your baby in a sling, developmental stages, etc. I started out getting it at the library and realized it was the ONE book I needed to BUY so I could refer back to it when necessary and it's proved its worth!
