5.0 out of 5 stars Best & Only Book needed for the first year, 20 Jan 2006
By DKT (London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I was given this book as a gift when my daughter arrived. I had purchased numerous other books to consult. This is the only one that I could consistently rely on to cover all issues that arose or could have arisen. It is brilliant with the advise given in a very relaxed, simple and no nonsense manner! The book is set out in four parts- Birth to 3 months; 3 to 6 months; 6 to 9 months and 9 to 12 months. It covers all issues relevent to each stage. The comprehensive index is a great shortcut!
At no stage does Robin Barker TELL you what to do instead, she provides a number of options. She is a very experienced in the field of children and this comes through very clearly in the book.
Now it is time for me to buy the Toddler version...

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best and only book you will ever need EVER!!, 8 Nov 2005
By A Customer
I am an Australian Mum to 5 month old Niccolo. My sister sent me this book when he was born and I tell you it is the most comprehensive, sensible, practical, thorough book I have read on babies EVER. She covers all possible topics, breastfeeding, bottlefeeding, sleep issues, 'queries and concerns' eg rashes, bumps, skin conditions, funny baby behaviours, all the weird little things that can happen to a baby and to a new Mum. Some of the info is Australia-specific (support groups, local organisations etc) but 90% is baby-specific so universal. I found most of my baby queries were answered by this book and I trust it a lot more than the often dodgy Health Visitor advice I was given. Robin Barker gives you lots of options for lots of problems, there is never a "right" and a "wrong" and she encourages you to trust your instinct and follow your own baby rather than a fixed solution. I cannot recommend this highly enough, I think it an absolute essential for every parent, and I would say grandparent. I could not have lived without it and I think my confidence as a parent is hugely increased due to her wise advice and sensible writing. BUY THIS BOOK YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. I would give is 100 stars!! Totally reliable in every way.
