5.0 out of 5 stars Every new Moms essential guide, November 20, 2004

By

This review is from: Baby Sense (Paperback)

Baby sense is an exceptional guideline to the sensory well being of your new baby. The book serves as a step-by-step guide for new Moms to understand the sensory world of the infant, teaching you to see and interpret what your babies needs are. It has made my life as a first time Mom a breeze. The book covers all the important aspects of early baby rearing. I recommend this book to all moms who want to be able to understand their babies needs.

Wow! I borrowed this book from a friend who kept talking about it. After reading 2 chapters I was on Amazon.com and got a copy for myself!
It is amazing how clearly and simply the book describes the SENSORY world as babies experience their new environment in the first year of their lives and what effect all those sensory input has on them. About how their immature nervous system is constantly trying to process ALL the information what they are subjected to - from the feel of their clothes on their skin to the temperature, the touch of your holding arms on their body to bright lights in the room and even the smell of all the visitors in the room! Things we take for granted, as our nervous system can filter it out - but they can NOT yet deal with...so we wondering WHY ARE THEY SCREAMING?? (it was also BRILLIANT to phrase from when the in-laws got carried away in their effort to entertain my little boy who wanted PEACE finally.)
I give this book to all my friends with new babies now! I think all new parents should be given this book on their way from the hospital (Or rather on the way in ....against all those early visitors who handle your baby around the room when you just want to get to know each other!)
Baby Sense

It is a FIVE STAR book and I recommend it with no hesitation to all new parents.

4.0 out of 5 stars A must have!, September 6, 2008

By

This review is from: Baby Sense (Paperback)

I have almost all the babysense products.I own 2 of their slings (beige/limited edition blue one),also their toddler sense book,their sleep sense book and of course the baby sense book.
My baby boy is 3 months old now and a lot of the info in this book has made me understand why my little boy start getting fussy(overstimulated),why he is sucking on his hands so hard(self soothing). I even used their 'Jungle Juice' recipe to help keep up my breast milk supply. It's delicious by the way.They address each age group specifically and tell you what you can expect. They teach you how to do sleep training too but I did not do that as I dont believe in sleep training.Very good book and very informative. The only thing that I also did not agree with is that they expect you to have your baby in his own bed and own room at 3 months which I think is way too early. They still need their mother's security at that age.I would defnitely buy this book again. Good Value.
