How to Survive Your Baby's First Year

the long version

How to Survive Your Baby’s First Year, by Hundreds of Happy Moms and Dads Who Did, is here to help make that first year with a new baby a lot easier. The book offers advice from hundreds of parents who have made it through the first year with their own babies and lived to share the secrets of their success. Unlike other parenting books that give only the opinion of one expert, How to Survive Your Baby’s First Year includes words of wisdom from hundreds of parents — both moms and dads, nationwide — who have been-there, done-that. Their sometimes funny and always useful, real-world baby experiences will help new parents face the endless challenges of bringing up a baby. While the advice may not always be in agreement, the variation in opinions goes to show that not all baby experiences will be alike, and what works for some parents may not work for others. Or, in other words, there simply isn’t one right answer. The book is designed to give parents insight and information so they can make their own decisions.
