At 32 weeks pregnant with twins i purchased this book. After focusing my entire time in just making it to 30 weeks in my pregnancy, it was time to be prepared for the actual babies! This book started out scaring the crap out of me! I NEED a night/day nurse? Its that bad??? OMG! I can't do this on my own? My poor husband had to listen to me freak out. I didn't WANT a night/day nurse. I wanted to do this on my own besides the obvious first week my mother in law comes and helps! Than the book goes into a few great tips about feed timing and schedules. But soon the book was COMPLETELY USELESS TO ME. Listen, i don't mind asking my friends and family for a bit of help here in there. And most of them are waiting to be asked or are going to ask me over and over again. But the things she suggests is down right rude. I would never ask any of my friends and family for such things. For goodness sake they threw me an amazing baby shower and i got some amazing gifts! Thats good enough for any type of financial support from them! Most of the book was filled with how to get things out of your friends and family and its just sad. If my family comes over and wants to do help. They will. I do NOT need to ask them. if they want to bring food to me they will. Thats the thing i hated most about this book. If you are blessed enough to have people in your life that love you. Than they will help you where they can. Not where you think they owe you. Please buy another book.UPDATE AFTER ONE MONTH WITH MY BABIES: I will first state that my twins were NOT easy babies. They weren't terribly difficult at first either. They slept a lot. They ate a lot. They cried. I came home from the hospital the next day after my c section.
