Summary
Reviewer Name: reader This book saved me. I had a baby, my first and one I had waited a long time for. I wanted to do it RIGHT. I wanted to be the best mom I could be! I had every kind of book telling me every kind of technique on feeding, sleeping, proper care, etc, etc, etc, Only I felt guilty if I wasn't doing it EXACTLY the way the book said too. Because that book was right of course, even though I probably had 3 other books that said no, their way was better.... And I was tired. And emotional. And so in love with this baby that I could cry just looking at him, and then cry again when he wouldn't take a nap when the book said he should. Enter \"First Time Mom\" and the first sentence of chapter 2: \"Your game plan for the first ten days with your child is a simple one: survival.\" With that sentence came the relief I needed. The RIGHT way for me and my baby, was going to be something we figured out over time! I wasn't going to ruin him by giving myself time to figure it out. Dr Leman will give you advice, but not guilt if you choose to do it a different way. He writes with humor and insight. He tells you about differences in parenting styles and how your birth order may affect how you parent. He tells you how to create lifetime bond of emotional security for your baby. It's a no guilt, practical guide that is the perfect gift for a \"first time mom!\" I highly recommend it!
