Summary: Attachment Parenting is a wonderful way of life
Comment: I wish every expectant parent would read Katie's book. I can't remember how old our son was when we discovered that there was a name for the method of parenting that my husband and I had adopted. We just "knew" not to let him cry himself to sleep, to share sleep with him, to let him breastfeed as he needed to, to hold him and wear him and love him 24 hours a day.
And then I discovered Katie's book and she reinforced all of our instincts! Whenever I have doubts (sometimes put upon me by society), all I have to do is re-read certain chapters or pages and it all comes clear to me again: my husband and I are the experts when it comes to our son. We should and will follow our instincts.
Yes, before reading this book, we had all the mainstream purchases: crib, swing, baby bucket, baby bouncer seat, stroller. And we did use those items a few times, but not to the extreme that we've seen other parents, leaving baby alone for long periods of time. Our son has grown into a happy and healthy toddler and we owe a lot of it to being so Attached!

Summary: This was the best parenting book we read
Comment: We are new parents -- our daughter is ten months old -- and this book was an essential item of baby gear for us. As a father, I liked the excellent documentation of why attachment parenting is biologically based behavior for humans. My wife had all her breastfeeding answers all together in one book and we both loved all the resource info. We have visited the websites listed many, many times at this point.
Perhaps the best part of this book was the info on how to make sure that our family bed is safe for our daughter and comfortable for us. We have never felt sleep deprived like so many new parents.
I cannot recommend this book highly enough.

Summary: Not what I was looking for.
Comment: I bought this book after hearing great things about it from my other new mom friends. I don't know what they were thinking because this is nothing but a collection of preachy, pointless tales embroidered around a well-worn (and already well-documented) parenting philosophy that is not even the author's own. If there is anything good I could say, it is that it didn't cost much to buy. I would have gotten more parenting inspiration from a block of wood.
