1.0 out of 5 stars Bad for nursing moms, January 2, 2008

This book had really bad breastfeeding advice. I laughed my head off when it said that nursing moms shouldn't pump gas. No wonder some moms think breastfeeding is so difficult!

This review is from: Your Pregnancy Quick Guide: Feeding Your Baby (Your Pregnancy Quick Guides) (Paperback)

This book was very poorly written. First clue, its called Your Pregnancy but it is about after your baby was born-that makes no sense! Because it is a quick guide the author takes the liberty of writing full paragraphs in bulleted form. The sentences are incomplete and sometimes do not make sense. It is super repetative and yet not very helpful. I had to stop reading it after 10 pages because the editing was so horrible. Save your money and just read up in What to Expect: The First Year. MUCH better value for money spent.

Another great resource from Glade B. Curtis. The same information in the [book:Your Baby's First Year: Week By Week (Your Pregnancy Series), Second Edition|865664] but in a fabulous compact version. I did feel that the authors lean toward formula feeding over breastfeeding in the subtleties that they expressed, but the information for either beginning feeding of an infant is there. I enjoy the resources provided in the books from the Your Pregnancy series and I highly recommend them.
