Parent Like a Pediatrician: All the Facts, None of the Fear

Parenting can be nerve-racking, even for the parents who feel prepared and “ready.” The truth is, no one is completely ready or knows the answers to every potential problem or situation that arises in a child’s life, especially when they have limited means of communication with the parent(s).

Fortunately, pediatrician Dr. Rebekah Diamond has provided parents with a book similar to the popular What to Expect series in Parent Like a Pediatrician. The book is divided into three parts, which correspond to the three trimesters of a child’s first year of life outside the womb. With quirky and humorous titles for each chapter, aspects of the child’s life are discussed in detail, including their importance, the history of their origin, and other relevant facts (including myths that have been believed to be truths).

My children are older than one year old, but reading through the book, there is a lot of good information about things I wasn’t even aware of as my children were aging after birth. Dr. Diamond explains everything in proper terms for the audience to read and understand. Parent Like a Pediatrician has the capability to put a pregnant or new mom at ease.
