Question

I just gave birth to our first baby two weeks ago! I wantr to get a book or two. Do you have any reccomendations? I really didn't like the "What to Expect when youre expecting" so I doubt I would like the "What to expect the first years" ANy other good books out there?

Thanks!

Answer 1

We love Baby 411.  It has everything in it and the answers are clear and concise.  Who wants to read a novel or be preached to when you really just want to know "Is this normal?"

A girlfriend got me mt first copy and the box set of Baby and Toddler 411 is my new go to gift for expectant moms.

Answer 2

I definitely didn't like What to Expect when you are expecting, HOWEVER I love What to Expect the first year. I recommend it, my little one is 10 weeks old and I read it as he grows and it is very helpful. Good luck to you!!

Answer 3

Portable Pediatrician is a very good book!!

Answer 4

Well, the best book really depends on your particular philosophy.

I like Dr. Sears' Baby Book.  

Answer 5

Baby 411 by Ari Brown and Denise Fields is a great book with awesome advice and tips!  In fact all of their books are wonderful...Baby Bargains, Toddler 411.

Answer 6

I really liked Dr. Sears' "The Baby Book". It is pretty comprehensive, with everything you need to know from birth till 2.
