What Customers Say About Your Baby's First Year (Second Edition):

This is an excellent book for new Mom's. Got it for my daughter.What could be better than a book written by Pediatricians.
I've been reading this book the last few days and so far I've learned a lot. I'm about to be a mom for the first time and this book has helped answer a lot of questions I had, especially about breastfeeding.
I would recommend this book as a good go-to reference book for the first year. It hasn't been updated in since I think 2005, so some of the info is a little dated, but it's still good information.
If you are going to buy 1 book on the first year (which is really all you need) this is a great choice. There is a lot of information on breast feeding and the first month. The chapters after that group months together, but after the first month, I didn't feel the need to consult a book constantly anyway. This is a great value.
I used it as a reference every time my baby got sick, and it helped when I actually did bring her to the Doctor because I already had a general idea of what they were talking about. I must say this book helped me the most, it's almost like talking to your pediatrician. I purchased this book before my baby was born, along with Heidi Murkoff's book. It also has great advice and unlike other books, which seem to contain lots of opinions, this one is actually backed by the AAP and scientific studies. It is sectioned differently than other 1st year books, as it clumps the months into threes or fours. It also includes a first aid section and a section with common illnesses. The developmental milestone sections are also great. This is the only book that I felt confident following advice from.
