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

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!!!

What’s not to love! Great gift for first time parents! 🎁

It came exactly as pictured and had many tips and photos of a variety of helpful tips, statistics, etc. I think it would be a good yet cheap way for new moms to help prepare them and start them on their new journey to parenthood.

I had read "What to Expect the First Year" and I must say that it is an exceptional resource for new parents. As a first-time parent myself, I was overwhelmed with the myriad of questions and concerns that came with the arrival of my little one. This book has been an invaluable companion throughout the first year of my child's life, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. First and foremost, the book is incredibly comprehensive. It covers every topic imaginable, from newborn care and feeding to sleep schedules, developmental milestones, and even dealing with common health issues. The authors leave no stone unturned, providing detailed and practical advice on virtually every aspect of baby care. No matter what challenges I encountered, I found relevant and reliable information within its pages.

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

No memory of that

Had a lot of information that’s key for new parents

Just what I was looking for!

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.
