Pregnancy and Child Medical Care Book

I got this from my sister a long time ago and I have been giving this book out for years to new mothers! It is one of the best "simple", straight-forward book I have seen. It tells of the warning signs, home remedies, and when to take the child or yourself to the doctor. It is a good reference book, something easy when young parents need that the most.

Fantastic Book

This book is fantastic! I wish I had it when my children were little. I purchased it for my daughter who is expecting her first baby (our first grandchild). This book is what everyone needs to have in the house when you are raising children and have so many questions. I used to call my mother all the time to ask her what to do about things like bee stings, fevers, coughs, rashes, etc. This book helps you with all of those things and hundreds of more. It gives you practical advise and tells you when it's necessary to seek medical care. This way you are not waisting money on unnecessary doctors visits. I highly recemmend this book and know that you will love it as much as I do!

BEST book for a new Mom and Dad! I couldn't live w/out it!

I was a typical new Mommy in May of 99. I would panic at the smallest things in my son. This book lists various symptoms of ailments and has a decision tree as to when you must call the doctor. This prevented me from making unnecessary calls to my advice nurse and doctor's office. I LOVE this book and will give a copy to all my friends who are expecting or already have a new baby.

A CLASSIC - THE BOOK YOU'LL KEEP

It's been almost 18 years since I was given an earlier edition of this book. For those of us who have little patience or time for chatty anecdotes, the authors provide a decision tree for every sickness and problem you will probably encounter as a parent. The most remarkable aspect of this book is that it becomes a teaching instrument for your child - my daughter and I read the decision trees together, learning how to make decisions about a medical problem she was having. A copy of this edition is sitting on her bookshelf at college! She packed it, saying that she'll never outgrow it. Buy this for yourself or for new parents. They will thank you.

Giving this book is the one gift that will get used often!

I received the 1988 version of this book back when my first child was born. I have used this book more often than anything. It has been by my bedside for 8 years! Now that my brother and sister-in-law are going to have their first child, it is at the top of my list of gifts to give them. There is a wealth of information for the new parent. It describes in detail, what the symptoms of common medical problems are. Even if you don't know what is wrong with your child, it prompts questions of you that help you figure it out.
