That's really saying something, considering how many baby books I have been gifted. What I really like about this one is that it really is a guide to life WITH baby. Many guides focus on things like breastfeeding vs. formula feeding, cosleeping pros and cons, etc. These are issues that I have already spent a lot of time researching. By the time my baby arrived, I'd already made up my mind.Instead, this book focuses on establishing a routine and accepting/dealing with the changes that comes with the introduction of a child into your life-- as well as the life of your spouse! I particularly enjoyed the section on maintaining your marriage. It provided some positive insights-- some things that might seem like common sense, but that I never really thought about until reading it here. It changed the way I interact with my husband. (Well, somewhat. Old habits are hard to break.)One warning: I borrowed this as an e-book, and the format was a little glitchy. I much prefer it in paperback.This is the baby book I would gift to friends.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Worth itBy Sam JohnsonThis book is actually a combination of 4 previous books all sold separately. All of them were good, so putting them together in one volume was a great idea--especially for budget conscious new parents. Though the book is really geared to new Mom's there are some insights in it that my wife and I discussed that I found helpful, so I picked up the book up and breezed through it. I kind of found it helpful, especially in understanding the way new mom's often feel--which my wife definitely fit into many of the stories told.I've read two other books by Dr. Monica Reed about health and really liked them. So was interested to read this one as well. Not disappointed.If you're looking for tips on your new life with a baby, this is a great option.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great book!By NovoaI ordered this book 2 years when I had our 1st daughter. Just finished reading it for the 2nd time. Book reminded me that not every mother is perfect even if you had your 2nd or 3rd child. As new mothers we put so much pressure on our selves and it doesn't have to be that way. This book brought me peace when was stressed out. I highly recommend this book to all mothers out there.
