Detailed and unpretentious, unintimidating

I absolutely love and recommend this book. Very detailed and yet really, basics. I found it much better than the Mayo guide or the what to expect book. It's kinder, simpler, and an easier read! A lot of thoughtful information on feeding, sleeping, etc.

solid book

book covers the basics from pregnancy through baby's first year. I was hoping for more information on things like baths, grooming, developmental play, etc. The information the book has is very good though.

Excellent resource!

My daughter-in-law is having a baby, and it’ll be our first grandchild. I got her this book, which was produced by three doctors from The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, one of the world’s leading pediatric care hospitals since 1875. The book provides exactly what the title claims, covering the basics in a friendly and concise book which still manages to be extensive and authoritative. It’s easy to read, with each chapter divided up into lots of very small sections, including sidebars, notes, pull quotes, FAQs, and “Works Best for…” bullet points, with clear headings, so you can find what you’re looking for quickly (even in the middle of a 3 a.m. feeding).I’ve had several children of my own and have had some training as a midwife, so I was glad to see the practical, accurate, relaxed and down-to-earth information new parents need, with a minimum of panic-inducing “see your doctor” commands. For example “Sleep when your baby sleeps,” is just the sort of advice every new mother needs, as well as a chapter introduction that advises new moms to just focus on them and the baby their first month together. There are many practical tips, like how to hold and swaddle your infant. There is some great info on breast-feeding, including different positions, how to get a good latch, and treating common problems.The book continues on through the first year, covering sleep, eating, teeth, and sickness, with some helpful charts on development stages. I especially liked the listing of how to interpret your baby’s cries — which generally increases toward 6 weeks, and diminishes thereafter, the book notes. The soft-cover book is well-bound, with nice paper, and includes lots of photos for reference as well.

This is a must-read for parents of babies. The pediatric team from The Hospital for Sick Children very thoroughly answers the questions parents will have during the first year of their baby's life.

Good read if you know nothing about little ones

Very helpful. I'm a first time father with little knowledge of kids. Found it easy to follow and lots of tips. Just the basics. But has lots of helpful info

This was recommended to me for my son and daughter-in-law

This was recommended to me for my son and daughter-in-law .... it looks informative inside with wonderful pictures and descriptions and explanations ... that's all I can comment on as I didn't go through it thoroughly but from what I've heard from the kids, it's great!
