Baby Boot Camp: Basic Training for the First Six Weeks of Motherhood

This book is very uplifting and encouraging for such a significant life change.

As a brand new mother, I received such encouragement from this book. I realized just how precious a privilege it is to be entrusted by God to raise one of His special gifts. I felt overwhelmed and underqualified as I realized how much my daughter will look to me. Even in the "hard" times of sleepless nights and fussy days, this book helped me see the joy and amazement in every moment. My only complaint of the book is that it ended too soon!

This is the best devotional I could have asked for as a new mother. I love her stories (from her experiences), ideas, and most of all, Godly advice and encouragement for new mothers. I can not say enough good stuff about this book. I am keeping it to give to my son's wife when they have a baby (he's 4 mos. old!)...it's that good! And I ordered some for all my pregnant friends.

I was given this book by a friend and what a blessing it was to me! I plan on giving it to all my friends as they are expecting their first baby. This book really helped bring perspective back to me during those first hormonal and life changing weeks.

This book was given to me by my ob/gyn office just before the birth of our son. I read it faithfully each day after we came home from the hospital and it really helped me through those first weeks, which were a lot tougher than I'd anticipated. I was hormonal already, I know, but I cried a lot as I read it--the author hit everything I was feeling right on the head. Baby Boot Camp is a terrific devotional book that spiritually took me to where I needed to be, while being very realistic about the ups and downs of new motherhood. I truly believe every mom should be handed this book along with the baby as they leave the hospital!
