Informative and Straight to the Point, Oct 30 2006
By Fashionista - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Experts' Guide to the Baby Years: 100 Things Every Parent Should Know (Hardcover)
I am very pleased with this book. Although I have other books that touch upon some of the same topics, The Expert's Guide to the Baby Years contains short chapters that get straight to the point. Each section is written by an expert in that specific field, so you know that you are getting the best information out there. I highly recommend this book!

She needed help naming her own baby, May 30 2011
By Joy Bertrand - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Experts' Guide to the Baby Years: 100 Things Every Parent Should Know (Hardcover)
I can't think of anything more vapid than hiring a consultant to help her "brand" her baby. See Ettus' appearance in "Preganant in Heels." I wouldn't trust this woman to choose my produce at Safeway, not to mention give me parenting advice.

Must have for new moms!, Oct 10 2006
By Jen P - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Experts' Guide to the Baby Years: 100 Things Every Parent Should Know (Hardcover)
As an expecting first time mom, I have a lot on my mind and this book has helped me think through a lot of those concerns. The Expert's Guide to the Baby Years has given me fantastic insight into many of the issues I'm facing while pregnant and those I'm sure to face in the coming months and years. It has been a lot of fun to read all of the topics such as how to "Choose a Name", "Dress Your Baby" and "Nurture Your Marriage." This beautiful book would be a great gift, as I'm sure every new mom would benefit from and enjoy reading advice from the experts.
