What to Expect the First Year: (Updated in 2025)

Great info and a must have for soon to be mommas/daddys

A must have for new parents! Ordered for my daughter who just had her first baby. You can’t go wrong with this book!

Recommended for new moms, clear and you can find all necessary tips, answers, advices

It's really informational.I would love to have another one.Could you order me one

This book is SO HELPFUL! Explains alot of different topics and has probably everything they would tell u in a parenting class if not more. Worth it!!!

Much of this was a great refresher from nursing school. Some of this went into slightly more detail. I really appreciate the authors capability of maintaining a neutral standpoint and reminding moms of what feelings may come, why they are normal, and how to handle those feelings.

Part way through the book and so far I have already learned so much and feeling way more prepared. Recommend to other first time moms!

Got for my sister and sister in law and sometimes I catch myself reading it while I babysit. Great book

This book was a life saver for me. It covers basically everything from birth till 12 months. It gave so much confidence with my baby

Great book! Super insightful for the preparation of having a baby! Would recommend to all new parents

Came early, great wee book with loads of information on various topics

Wished bought had before delivery

Very "uncomfortable" book to read, the writing format is very messy with multiple columns on the same page and different headlines, you don't even know what to read. Very US specific in writing, many topics but no depth in either of them. I would also say a bit judgemental at times, for example talking about baby's development and comparing them to "normal" babies - what are "normal" babies? Very strange style of writting.
