You can usually trust the reviews on Amazon (just in case you didn't look yet).

This is a book about buying baby stuff?

I wouldn't get it. People gave us stuff and we shopped at thrift shops. We didn't have ********everything******** we wanted, but we all survived!

Other ages... are prone to faction, and it is our business to inflame them. Any small coterie, bound together by some interest which other men dislike or ignore, tends to develop inside itself a hothouse mutual admiration, and towards the outer world, a great deal of pride and hatred which is entertained without shame because the 'Cause' is its sponsor... Even when the little group exists originally for the Enemy's own purposes, this remains true.... The Church [H]erself is, of course, heavily defended... but subordinate factions within [H]er have often produced admirable results, from the parties of Paul and Apollos at Corinth down...." —The Screwtape Letters; number 7.

I dunno, but I wouldn't buy it.  Go thumb thru it at the library, and if it has some good advice just jot down on a notepad.

exactly what UD said.

The same couple came out with one for getting married - it was all the rage and obsolete a year after publication.

All the information you would find out in that book can be found for free on the internet, or gleaned from friends or family who have recently had children. When it comes to buying baby stuff, or even books about how to cheaply buy baby stuff, "just say no"! It's a trap- you think that everything looks cute and they convince you that you *need* something when you don't. Also, ask FE moms for tips - most of them have babies on the cheap and can give advice if you have questions.

Well I was looking at this book actually precisely because I have their book on wedding planning and found it extremely helpful.

I didn't end up buying the baby book, though, if anybody was curious.
