Book Reviews of Dr. Spock's Baby and Child Care : 8th Edition
Book Review: A Must Have for any Mom
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr. Spock's book is a must have for any mom or parent! This is a huge book (900 pages) FULL of information. This is a book that is helpful more than just during the all-important first year, it includes information up till the age of 18...That's the kind of book I like, one that I'll be using, not one I have for a year and then I'm done with it.
There are several sections: Your Child Age by Age (prenatal, delivery and then broken down into ages up until 18 yrs), Feeding and Nutrition (breastfeeding, formula feeding, starting solids, a picky toddler), Raising Mentally Healthy Children (daycare, disciplin, sexuality, stresses and tantrums), Common Developmental and Behavioral Challenges (sibling rivalry, whining, habits, toilet training, disabilities), Learning and School (learning and brain, ready for school, school problems, planning for college), Health and Safety (injuries, immunizations, first aid, dental, common childhood illnesses). As you can see, this book is pretty comprehensive! My son is 2 and so far I am finding some tips and advice helpful, and other times the section is too vague or not helpful. But, overall I still think it's a fabulous book for parents. I had a long search for a book like this and this was the best I could find. The only other that I got and enjoyed was Your Baby's First Year (endorsed by the AAP), but that was only good for year #1.
If you're a new parent and looking for a helpful, comprehensive parenting book, search no more! This was the best book I could find.
