The Baby Book: Everything You Need to Know About Your Baby Review

This book has been incredibly helpful.  As a neurotic new mother I have referenced this book several times to make sure that what my baby is doing or going through is within the realm of 'normal' and this book has never failed to provide me with an answer.  I read the first few chapters before our baby even came and it was a sanity saver . . . for example, new babies have different and non-consistent breathing patterns.  If I would have not read the ahead of time I would have been freaking out the first few days!

 I am also an avid on-line researcher but this book often provided more detailed answers much quicker than my searches on-line for the same information. It is true that the book is very 'pro attachment parenting' but they still provide information on other options so I didn't mind the slight bias.
