review 1: Especially good for anyone expecting their first child as it gives closer insight as to the changes children make in life and get you thinking about what your opinion is on areas not considered before due to inexperience. Plus, it has some pretty funny stuff in it. I really like how it points out it's okay to do things your own way and that you'll eventually find out through trial and error what that way is. Lots of helpful info on the changes in your relationship with your spouse and how to avoid pitfalls, again because of inexperience. Encourages the use of humor and not to expect perfection of yourself and others.
review 2: The difference between a first-time parent and one who's had at least another child, is the difference between obsessing over steril
... moreizing pacifiers and knowing you can wipe the thing off and give it back to the kid.I heard about this book through a radio interview with the authors, and have had so much of my soon-to-be-a-parent mind set at ease by its practical, for-heavens-sake-relax advice. Written by parents of two and with input from other parents of at least two children, this book is a great reminder for first-time and soon-to-be parents that there are a lot of things you really don't need to worry about. You can relax more than you realize. Your kids will still turn out fine, you'll be a happier person, and your family can still be awesome. less
