Summary: Excellent! Refreshing insights into child care
Comment: This book didn't serve as a reference on the "how to's" of infant care, but instead provided me with answers to so many of the fundamental problems new parents agonize over. It was such a wonderful change to hear Mr. Morris, a zoologist, dispell cultural myths and observe nature for explanations and suggestions. Reading this book was fun and made me feel confident that my parental instincts were in line with good care for my baby.
Rating: 5
Summary: glorious pictures of beautiful babies
Comment: I love the text and pictures in this book. It would make a wonderful new baby gift for any couple. I wish it were still in print so that I could find more copies. I would keep a 'stash' and have one ready as soon as I found out a friend was having a baby.

Summary: Forget Dr. Spock, read this & learn to CARE for your baby.
Comment: After the birth of my now-four-year-old daughter, this was the only "baby book" I read that made any sense at all. Morris' describes the mother-child contract, a reciprocal exchange of the baby making his/her needs known and mother fulfilling those needs. He puts into words the joy each mother finds in responding to her baby, and the incredible base of life-long security established in an infant whose needs are met by a loving, playful, and competent mother. I read the chapter "Why do Babies Cry?" every other day to remind myself that what I did instinctually with my baby (i.e., pick her up whenever she cried and figure out what she needed) was exactly right. Reading "Babywatching" always boosted my confidence, and made me feel like part of a competent mother-child pair. Reading other baby books (Spock, Brazelton) always made me feel unsure and question whether I was doing the right thing. The chapters "Where do Babies Sleep?" "What do Babies Eat?" "Why do Babies Cry?" and "What Comforts a Baby?" should be issued to every parent before they take baby home from the hospital. Truly caring for a baby means connecting to your baby on many levels: physical, emotional, spiritual, and intellectual (baby intellect being the mimicking and copying they employ to learn human communication.) Babywatching describes, in simple terms, how to make these connections with your baby, and, by extrapolation, with all of the people in your lives
