The book arrived in nearly perfect condition, and it was practically free. However, I paid for expedited shipment, which was a waste of money because they use the Standard mail.

this book is great, however I am having a hard time deciding which month my child is in and what chapter I am supposed to be reading. when my child is 3months old (12 weeks) I am unsure whether I am supposed to be reading the "in the 3rd month" chapter or the "in the 4th month" chapter, it is kind of confusing, it would be better if the chapters where labeled with the corresponding weeks old, instead of months. Otherwise this book has a lot of great information.

This book is for the type of mom who doesn't really trust herself, and who wants validations for every little detail that she needs to know about for babies. Not all of the advice is bad, but do you really need it? Why not trust yourself and do what feels appropriate?
Dietary advice, as is typical with pregnancy and child raising books, is terrible. Suggesting for example, to start your baby on a low fat diet early. It suggests avoiding butter. :(
Butter is a sacred food for babies, ... Read More
