- Get this one.
If you're a first time mom--or dad--this is the book to get. It covers virtually everything you need to know up until two years. I felt pretty clueless before I read this book and then, afterwards, felt better and calmer about the whole situtation. Don't be intimated by it's size. It's pretty big but very comphrensive. In conjunction with this one, I also recommend The No-Cry Sleep Solution: Gentle Ways to Help Your Baby Sleep Through the Night to help with those sleepless nights!!
