What to Expect the First Year
reviewed on + 19 more book reviews


My best friend got this book when her daughter was born and found it was invaluable in helping her through her any pitfall a new mother may have. I fondly remember sitting on her floor and looking the questions that we had up in the book-- I was delegated for the job.LOL
A couple of weeks ago, I bought this copy at the library because my boyfriend's sister-in-law is expecting, but she already has a copy. So, if you're expecting or have a newborn, get this book. It touches on topics such as breastfeeding, what to expect at your baby's first check-up, baby's sleep patterns, and almost any other concern you may have. This book is great for a gift, but it's not "new" enough looking, so I'd suggest a trip to Barnes and Noble if you intend to give to another new mother.
