The New Mom's Manual: Over 800 Tips and Advice from Hundreds of Moms for Baby's First Year

Bathing, feeding, crying, diaper-changing, teething, marital stress, colic, traveling, postpartum adjustment, baby-proofing the house stay-at-home mom Mary Jeanne Menna has been through it all. Her The New Mom's Manual: Over 800 Tips and Advice from Hundreds of Moms for Baby's First Year, which will be advertised in Child magazine, should appeal to new mothers in need of advice and community. Menna presents an exhaustive array of information all vetted by Harvard Medical School pediatrics professor and physician Michael Shannon. Dads may be disappointed, though: the emphasis, as the title suggests, is almost exclusively on moms. B&w illus. Agent, Anne Hawkins.
