"What to Expect: The First Year" is the world's most popular and best-selling handbook to the instructions that babies shouldn't come with, but do. It has sold close to 12 million copies. First Year is easy to read, quick to skim, and full of helpful advice, relatable anecdotes, and accessible information. It maintains its signature month-by-month format, which helps parents take the potentially overwhelming first year one step at a time. Some of the topics covered include: Baby care basics like crib and sleep safety, feeding, vitamin supplements, and support for breastfeeding (starting and continuing). Attachment parenting, sleep training, early potty training, baby-led weaning, and green parenting (using non-toxic furnishings and cloth diapers) are among the hot-button issues and trends discussed. There are studies on the effects of screen time (TVs, iPads, apps, PCs), advice on making homemade baby food, the most recent recommendations on when to introduce solids, and a ton more.
