A baby book
Not the kind in which you record baby’s first words, but an instructional book for the parents. It’s nice to have a book for those middle of the night questions. Our favorite, "The Baby Book" by Sears and Sears, is falling apart from frequent readings! Choose from a plethora of instructional books to suit any parenting style. We've got crafty, DIY ideas, too.
WebMD Baby App
This app from WebMD sends parents age-appropriate articles each week, and doctor-approved tips each day. You can also track baby’s milestones, and it features a searchable database for when you have a question. It even records photos and videos for a digital baby book!
