This is a really good book, especially for first time mums – covers a huge range of topics and has up to date, comprehensive answers. It comes from a parents point of view and encourages parents to do what feels right for them – but provides information on different approaches and view points so parents can make an informed choice. Very helpful to look up when you're a bit stuck and don't know quite what to do, as well as an interesting read to find out what your baby will be doing month by month.
