I loved this book and I found it tremendously helpful with my 3 month old baby who has colic. Not only does the book tell you exactly how to massage your baby in really simple terms, it also comes with an adorable onesie that shows how to massage your baby right on the shirt! I now buy this book for all my friends who are having babies. It's my favorite baby shower present.

The intention of this book is nice. The content is just too much! The onesie is cute - for a few washings, and the print is so small - hard to read. I know the subject is important, I just think it could have been delivered in a much more concise manner. There is a newer book out there now by Suzanne P. Reese titled: Baby Massage - Soothing Strokes For Healthy Growth, and it's compact, easy-to-read and she gets right to the point without the need for so much text before you finally get to the strokes.....and Ms Reese's book has photos of real babies - not drawings. Much cuter and fun to look at!

This book and the onesie that comes with it are so helpful to me now that I have a 4 month old baby. I was pretty timid when it came to touching my new baby because she was premature but I learned how to use the techniques in the book . The shirt made everything so easy. I recommend this book to everyone with a baby!

My sister gave this book to me after she saw it on the "Live with Regis and Kelly" show. My baby has colic and the book taught me some ways to help soothe her. The cute onesie has all the directions on the shirt so I could just follow the arrows to give my baby a massage. It was so easy and I have to say that it worked! I highly recommend this book and baby shirt to all moms.

I love this book. I received it as a gift at my baby shower and I massaged my baby using the techniques in the book. The baby onesie that comes with the book is so cute and it really helped teach me how to massage. It's easy to follow and has lots of important info that I didn't know. I highly recommend it to everyone.

I got this book so my wife could use it with out infant children. To be Honest, I don't know if she actually used it or not. I didn't. I'd forgotten I'd even purchased the book. :)

I absolutely love this!! I am a massage therapist and the book is right on. It's also a unique, thoughtful & an unexpected gift to give family & friends that are expecting or have little ones!! :)

I love this book and buy it in bulk for all the baby showers I attend. It's a unique gift that new mothers really seem to like.

This book is nice, but for the same price you can buy a DVD on the subject. I like Aimee Ketchum's DVD because not only does she do a great job of demonstrating baby massage, but she also gives lots of information on how your baby develops. Her massage method lasts only 4-5 minutes per session. I really don't have the time to spend an hour giving my baby a massage. There is so much more information on her DVD about your baby and how simple exercises can help your baby's brain development and lots and lots of other stuff. I just don't see why you'd want to buy a book with only massage pictures in it when you can buy a DVD with not only lots of massage info, but also has tons and tons of other simple stuff you can do with your baby. It makes so much sense and you don't need to buy anything else. Plus Aimee has a nice personality and you can tell she really cares. She's very qualified and is a pediatric OT plus certified massage therapist for babies, like Gweneth Paltro hires to massage her baby.
