4New Parent must read.  Oct 04, 2009
Overall a sound book with lots of useful information. The only downside is there is no competition for it which means the book may not have any significant changes to future additions.

5What to Expect..............  Oct 02, 2009
Excellent resource. Always answers all of my questions and information is organized for easy reference.

5The only parenting book I've actually used  Oct 01, 2009
I'm a dad and we've purchased various baby/parenting books, but this is by far the best.
Pros:
- the layout is excellent, I can easily find what I'm looking for without having to read through large sections.
- our daughter is 11 months now and the book has covered (with very few exceptions) everything we've had questions on.

Con:
- as any new parent has discovered, parenting is like politics, everyone has their own position. While this book overall does a good job of fairly presenting all positions, there are some areas where the authors' personal opinions slant the presentation. Just something to be aware of.

5The Top Baby Shower Gift Ever  Sep 22, 2009
I asked a new mother the very best baby shower gift she had received. Her response was, "the book 'What to Expect the First Year' and you can get it on Amazon." Based on her strong referral and the ease of ordering this affordable gift, my baby shower gift was a hit for an expectant mother.
