Customer Reviews
This DVD focused more on safety tips for newborn care, which included a lot of information I truly had not known before and that other DVD's do not mention. I cannot list them all here, just look at the Product Description, it lists all the info you should expect to learn about.
The video is short compared to others, but it focuses on what is necessary and does not drag on with interviews and unnecessary info.
-Car seats are old-- three point harnesses are not even made any more! And the information about use is not very thorough.
-Safe sleep information is HORRIBLE!!! She says, "Use bumper pads"!!!!!!! YIKES. Please do NOT USE BUMPER PADS- THEY ARE VERY DANGEROUS!!!
-Some of the images and clothes are very dated.
