5.0 out of 5 stars Great 'new baby' book, 22 Aug 2006
By H. L. Ireland (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I loved the tone which was supportive without being patronising, was sympathetic and at the same time very amusing. I felt like it tried to be unbiased and was good in helping me not to panic about the things that new mums panic about.

5.0 out of 5 stars relevant, funny and real, 7 Jul 2006
By Gembabes "Gemma" (Loughborough) - See all my reviews
If you liked the Rough Guide to Pregnancy (and even if you didn't) this is a great book. It's down to earth and real, and unlike loads of the baby books out there, geared for a UK market. Plus there are funny and reassuring reviews of all the other baby 'gurus' eg) Gina Ford, and stories from loads of real mothers and what they went through. More than anything else, it made me feel normal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulously reassuring, 20 Aug 2006
By Lorna (Scotland) - See all my reviews
First baby has yet to arrive but already I feel much better about the prospect of being a parent. Have started reading a couple of other baby books, but this has been the only one that sounds as though it was written for me rather than a stepford wife.

The style of writing and the chapters make this very, very accessible - great for picking up in a spare 10 minutes for a chuckle and to learn something new. It is full of interesting information and facts, such as how to easily swaddle a baby, which I'm sure will come in handy. This is definately coming to the maternity ward with me.
