You have now joined the long and respected chain of mothers and fathers stretching back to the very beginning of families. In many ways, caring for your new baby will be totally natural and instinctual. Yet, you will certainly have many questions . . . that's normal, too. Although parents today are the most educated in history, in many respects we are also the least experienced. Parents in the past had a whole network of support at hand. They usually had their parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles nearby in which to get help and advice. Also, as they grew up, they had lots of hands-on experience caring for younger siblings, cousins, and neighbors. Their hundreds of hours of tiny-tot training (from diaper duty to burping to rocking a child to sleep) really made them feel prepared for having their own newborn. But today's parents are different. We often live farther away from our baby-savvy relatives. And, as amazing as it sounds, many moms and dads barely have even held a baby before giving birth and being handed their own little bundle by the nurse. I don't know how much hands-on baby practice you have, but most parents I see in my practice have very little to none. (No wonder new parents sometimes joke that they expect some type of a 'shoplifting alarm' to go off when they leave the hospital!) But, don't worry! Even if you don't know everything about babies, Elizabeth Pantley does. Like her extraordinary book The No-Cry Sleep Solution, Elizabeth's Gentle Baby Care is a warm, fact-filled, and practical book. Her advice is guided by love and a level head. With her broad experience as a parenting educator and mother of four children, this book is the next best thing to having a wise, experienced friend living next door. I have no doubt that Gentle Baby Care will be a valuable addition to your library, whether you are a first-time parent or an old experienced pro.

Nice resource book to have in your library when it comes to baby care Rating - Dumb title, but a good book for new parents! This is a great book for new parents--especially when you need to learn quickly. My husband and I got the call that we had been picked by the birth mom of a little boy who was already 2 days old. We had to pack up and head to the hospital and I needed information about being a parent. Since we had experienced a few years of infertility treatment, I wasn't too optimistic about our chances of becoming parents anytime soon. Therefore, I had not been reading up on parenting/what to expect. I bought this book at my local book store (for more $ than Amazon, unfortunately)and found it very helpful. Information ...

I'd say that's a pretty good recommendation. see more reviews See all books by author Elizabeth Pantley, Harvey Karp
