Product Description

Read a little, learn a lot!

Oh, baby! In one book, 100 leading parenting experts offer must-have advice for expecting and new parents. The Experts’ Guide to the Baby Years is the all-in-one companion to raising your baby with confidence, knowledge, and style, while maintaining your own sanity. As a brand-new parent, Samantha Ettus, creator of the Experts’ Guide series of books, went on a search to collect invaluable insights and practical know-how from the world’s experts in the field of parenting. The result is this wonderfully informative and entertaining guide to preparing for, welcoming, and caring for your new baby like an expert.

In bite-sized chapters that even the most sleep-deprived new parents can digest, you’ll find advice from an expert on the top 100 parental concerns, from budgeting for the baby to bathing, breastfeeding, and beyond. And it doesn’t stop at Baby. The Experts’ Guide to the Baby Years includes plenty of chapters devoted to you, too–such as getting in shape after childbirth, maintaining a happy marriage, and setting up a playdate. Bestselling author and pediatrician Harvey Karp provides secrets for calming a crying infant; travel guru Pauline Frommer reveals her best tips on planning a vacation with your child; and Iron Chef Cat Cora offers her techniques for making baby food. Each of the contributors brings a matchless blend of knowledge, passion, and experience to ensure that you make the most of your child’s first years.

From choosing a name and preparing for your baby’s arrival home to making the transition back to work, The Experts’ Guide to the Baby Years brings an unparalleled breadth of practical and authoritative information to the alternately joyous and exhausting journey through the baby years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Informative and Straight to the Point, October 30, 2006
By Fashionista (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews
I am very pleased with this book. Although I have other books that touch upon some of the same topics, The Expert's Guide to the Baby Years contains short chapters that get straight to the point. Each section is written by an expert in that specific field, so you know that you are getting the best information out there. I highly recommend this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have for new moms!, October 10, 2006
By Jen P (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
As an expecting first time mom, I have a lot on my mind and this book has helped me think through a lot of those concerns. The Expert's Guide to the Baby Years has given me fantastic insight into many of the issues I'm facing while pregnant and those I'm sure to face in the coming months and years. It has been a lot of fun to read all of the topics such as how to "Choose a Name", "Dress Your Baby" and "Nurture Your Marriage." This beautiful book would be a great gift, as I'm sure every new mom would benefit from and enjoy reading advice from the experts.
