Great but could use better organization
There is so much excellent information in this book. My wife even found parts of it I shared with her very interesting - some is universal to all parents, but she also enjoyed the dad-specific parts as it’s interesting to gain some insight into the other partner’s perspective.
There are a couple areas for improvement in this book, however:
1. Each “month-specific” chapter, after the actually month-specific “what’s going on with the baby” and “what’s going on with you” intros, is filled with information that is generally applicable to the whole first year. I would think “there’s no point listening to the 6th month chapter, I’m only in month 5”, but later I would find that chapter contained important information I wish I had known even in the first month. I would much prefer that the book was reorganized to put all the general info at the beginning, and leave the small amount of actually month-specific items to the end. Meanwhile, if you get this book, I really recommend going through the whole thing even if you’re only in your first month - or even before the birth!
2. The month-specific stuff is written authoritatively like “this month your baby is doing X, Y, and Z.” The thing is, there’s no such thing as a definite month-by-month schedule of what your baby WILL do! They will do some things sooner, some later, and some maybe not at all! It’s disheartening, as a parent already full of worries, to hear “this month your baby is running marathons, tap-dancing, and engaging in political debates with top academics”, and thinking “but my baby can only say mama and still isn’t eating reliably”. It should really be re-worded to say “this month about 63% of babies can do X, but many will acquire this skill 2-3 months earlier or later.” Meanwhile, do yourself a favour and look up some info on the typical windows for developing different skills, and at what point not having a particular skill is actually of any concern.
3. Last, it would be better if the chapters in the audiobook were labelled with their chapter headings as well as numbered. If I want to refer back or forward to something, a chapter title like “Chapter 11” is useless.
