Books
	Caring for Your Baby and Youn: Birth to Age 5 Pregnancy is a time of anticipation, excitement, preparation, and, for many new parents, uncertainty. You dream of a baby who will be strong, healthy, and bright--and you make plans to provide her with everything she needs to grow and thrive.
	Your Baby's First Year (Second Edition) When your baby first arrives, you may feel a bit overwhelmed by the job of caring for her. Even such routine tasks as diapering and dressing her can fill you with anxiety-especially if you've never spent much time around babies before.
