Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com Review
In their excellent (and hefty) resource guide, The Baby Book, attachment parenting specialists William Sears and Martha Sears have provided new parents with their approach to every aspect of baby care basics, from newborns to toddlers. Attachment parenting is a gentle, reasonable approach to parenting that stresses bonding with your baby, responding to her cues, breastfeeding, "wearing" your baby, and sharing sleep with your child. For those parents who worry about negative effects of this attention, the Sears say, "Spoiling is what happens when you leave something (or some person) alone on the shelf--it spoils."

Product Description
Brought thoroughly up-to-date-with the latest information on everything from diapering to daycare, from midwifery to hospital "birthing rooms," from postpartum nutrition to infant development-THE BABY BOOK remains the one must-have resource for today's new parents.

In this perennially bestselling and encyclopedic guide, Dr. Bill and Martha Sears draw from their vast experience both as medical professionals and as parents to provide authoritative, comprehensive information on virtually every aspect of infant care. THE BABY BOOK focuses on the essential needs of babies-eating, sleeping, development, health, and comfort-as it addresses the questions of greatest concern to parents today.

5 out of 5 stars Indispensable   March 12, 2010
A. Panyard
I have two kids (4 and 9 months) and this book is really wonderful. I refer to it often and the advice is very helpful. I recommend this for all parents, especially new parents.


4 out of 5 stars Great book, with a couple of caveats   March 1, 2010
nem (New York, NY United States)
Excellent book by the fabulous Sears family! Provides a thorough overview of baby care, including child development, medical/health issues, etc.

A couple of caveats: (1) I also own the Sears' "The Attachment Parenting Book," and I will say that owning both is a waste -- The Baby Book contains enough info about AP that you don't really need the separate book; and (2) the chapter on being an attached but working parent was sooo disappointing! I was really looking forward to reading it, as I will be working full-time after my son is born, but instead of giving useful information, the vast majority of the chapter was dedicated to trying to convince moms to stay at home! Obviously, that would be wonderful, but it's not an option for me (or for many other women). That chapter was a bummer and, truth be told, I finished it feeling a bit offended. But absent that misstep, The Baby Book is great & definitely recommended.



5 out of 5 stars A Must Have!   February 14, 2010

If you hate the idea of using the Ferber method than this book is for you. I do not understand how anyone could let their baby cry because they find it inconvenient to pick up them up or go without some sleep. They are not babies forever and this book explains that. I love this method, I think you should love your baby and do everything you can for them. Anyone using the Ferber method is completely insane. Buy this book, you will not regret it!


3 out of 5 stars Just ok.   February 13, 2010

Per my review title, this book is just ok. Haven't read the whole thing, but just seems "fluffier" than I expected after browsing through it in a bookstore. My opinion may change, but so far seems light on the add value quality for a father-to-be looking for some guidance.


5 out of 5 stars Priceless   February 9, 2010

Yet somehow you can buy it for such a great price! This book is fantastic. My wife and I constantly use it as a reference and love to read it when we get a free moment (which of course is rare). Out of the 15+ books that we bought before our son was born, this is #1 on our list. Amazing how much detail and depth this book has. Written by professionals who are parents, or vice-versa. A must for any parent!
