The Second Edition incorporates the most recent developments in pediatric medicine. Every question and answer have been revisited, and in response to letters from readers, dozens of new QandAs have been added. The book is more reader-friendly than ever, with updated cultural references, and the new material brings more in-depth coverage to issues such as newborn screening, home births and the resulting at-home newborn care, vitamins and vaccines, milk allergies, causes of colic, sleep problems, SIDS, returning to work, dealing with siblings, weaning, sippy cups, the expanded role of the father, and much more. An updated cover and all-new black-and-white line illustrations complement the fresher book with a fresher look.

Synopsis:
DESCRIPTION Complete and up-to-date, What to Expect the First Year is like having a pediatrician, psychologist, and an Earth Mommy on hand 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The voice is friendly, supportive, and authoritative, taking parents month by month through the first year of their baby's life, and beyond. They have questions: When can my baby start solids? Are walkers safe for my baby? How can I help my baby lose her fear of the bath? This month my baby has forgotten skills he learned last month--is there something wrong with him? The book has answers. Plus full information on starting baby on solids, traveling with baby, environmental hazards, doctor's check-ups, immunizations, first aid, and childhood illnesses and their treatment.
