This book was so wonderful. The challenges of being a brand new mom are usually met with the horror of "is my child progressing right." This can be one of the most terrifying things to endure. You have this precious baby and now what do you do with it? This book helped me answer those questions and calm my fears. I was very accustomed to the writing style because I had used the pregnancy book published by the same people. They break down every month and tell you what your baby should be doing, what they might be doing, and when to get concerned. It was a great relief to be able to reference a book instead of calling the doctor or bothering other people. It also helps to answer the questions you don't want people to know you are wondering about. I would definitely recommend this to all my friends.
