Very Complete,
By A Customer
This review is from: Baby Om: Yoga for Mothers and Babies (Paperback)
I found this book to be very complete, with details on body positioning/benefits/etc. for each pose/exercise for you and your baby as well as many variations to make it work for you and your baby. They also included some information on baby massage and a special workout for c-section recovery. Its worth reading a few times before you dive into a workout to choose what you want to do and how you want to do it, rather than read while doing the workout and getting bogged down in all the options.

HARD TO READ,
By "dnclem" (Pasadena, Md United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Baby Om: Yoga for Mothers and Babies (Paperback)
By the time I was done reading an excersice and trying to figure out what they meant, my baby was crying and screaming on the yoga mat. This book is very hard to understand. If I was doing the Yoga by myself I wouldn't mind taking a bit of time to figure out what they mean, but with a baby it is a totally different story. Bottom line this book was not written with mother and baby reading in mind.

Save Yourself Some Time by Stocking up for Baby Showers,
By Julie Jordan Scott "Writer, Life Coach - Owne... (Bakersfield, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Baby Om: Yoga for Mothers and Babies (Paperback)
This gorgeous, inspiring book ALMOST makes me think about having another baby just so I can experience "Baby Om" first hand.The instructions for each pose are concise and complete, the illustrations and graphics are easy to understand and the pictures are priceless. Also included is a Chapter on the Birth Process itself, written from a very realistic and open point of view. The "Mom's Boxes" provide some first hand experiences which affirm the teachings and offer insights from a different -- beginner-mind-esque (I think I just made up a new word!) point of view written by practitioners of Baby Om. I am stocking up on this one to give to anyone with a new born or for a unique, really useful and bound to be treasured forever.
