This has got to be one of the best baby shower gifts I received. Though you will be able to find a lot of the same information through New Mommy Smarts, it's also wise to have a handbook available in case your Internet is down.
Baby 411 is written by Dr. Brown, a Harvard-trained pediatrician with experience as both doctor and mom. Denise fields is the best-selling author of Baby Bargains and has been featured as a parenting expert on Oprah, the Today Show and in the Wall Street Journal.
This book has detailed Q&A's on topics such as how to choose your pediatrician, different methods on sleep, vaccines, breastfeeding vs. bottle feeding, nutritional guidelines...you name it. It is a great resource for first time moms and moms who need a bit of a refresher.
