Book Reviews of The Baby Book: Everything You Need to Know About Your Baby from Birth to Age Two (Revised and Updated Edition)

Book Review: Only baby book you'll need
Summary: 5 Stars

This IS the best baby book you could ever get yourself. With kid #2 it's still my bible. If you want to be an informed parent and are willing to choose the very best approach to child rearing (not always the easiest!), but the most mindful approach of the very best interest of your child, then this will be your favorite baby book too. And Dr. Sears doesn't disregard an individual's choice (dictated often by life's challenges and circumstances). He provides a wealth of information and support to everyone no matter what path your on despite his obvious promotion of what he, as an experienced physician and father, believes is the healthiest (body, mind, and soul!)approach to child rearing for the whole family.

Summary of The Baby Book: Everything You Need to Know About Your Baby from Birth to Age Two (Revised and Updated Edition)

In this encyclopaedic guide, Dr. William and Martha Sears draw from their vast experience as both medical professionals and parents to provide authoritative and comprehensive information on every aspect of infant care. The Baby Book presents a practical and contemporary approach to parenting that reflects the way we live today. It is a comprehensive guide to baby care, focusing on the essential needs of babies -- eating, sleeping, development, health, and comfort -- as it addresses the questions of greatest concern to parents today. The Sears' acknowledge that there is no one best way to parent a baby, and they offer the basic guidance and inspiration you need to develop the parenting style that best suits you and your child. The Baby Book is a rich and invaluable resource that will help you get the most out of parenting -- for your child, for yourself, and for your entire family. The topics covered include: - bonding with your baby and soothing a fussy baby - feeding your baby right - getting your baby to sleep - understanding your baby's development - treating common illnesses - baby proofing your home - toddler behaviour and dealing with tantrums - toilet training - working and parenting
In their excellent (and hefty) resource guide, The Baby Book, attachment parenting specialists William Sears and Martha Sears have provided new parents with their approach to every aspect of baby care basics, from newborns to toddlers. Attachment parenting is a gentle, reasonable approach to parenting that stresses bonding with your baby, responding to her cues, breastfeeding, "wearing" your baby, and sharing sleep with your child. For those parents who worry about negative effects of this attention, the Sears say, "Spoiling is what happens when you leave something (or some person) alone on the shelf--it spoils."
