Dr. Kelly is our pediatrician, and when we met her during our pregnancy visit, we were given a copy of the previous edition. There were many nights when we would pull out this book to figure out when and if we should panic... it was a good guide for new parents. We still used it occasionally with our 2nd child, when we needed a reminder of what to do for croup or how long to store breast milk or whatever.

A good book for new parents

This was a very insightful book that covered almost everything that a baby could need. I suggest reading this before getting a baby, because it will show you the responsibilities that you're going to have to do when you get one. It has a lot of black and white illustrations, mainly drawings of certain procedures like CPR which guide you well.

This is a great book. Like it says it covers just about everything you need to know about the babys first year of their life! Might not be a good review, but if you dont know what to expect with your newborn this book is a must.

A good book for new fathers

It's hard to find a more crowded section of a bookstore than the pregnancy/parenting section (unless it is the computer guides for dummies section) But how many different caring-for-babies books does a new parent need? Hopefully only one or two, but keep in mind there are different books for different personality types and needs.Which is why "First-Year Baby Care" makes a good book for a new father. Written by a pediatrician and mother, it contains all the necessary information in an easy-to-use, nicely illustrated format. But doesn't have the personal vignettes and "tales from the front lines" advice that books like "What to Expect When You're Expecting" have, advice and personal accounts that I found comforting as a new mother. I would suspect fathers would benefit more from a book like this, with it's "cut-to-the-chase and tell me how to diaper this baby" approach.
