Product Description

Dr. Michel Cohen, named by the New York Post as the hip, "must-have" pediatrician, has an important message for parents: Don't worry so much. In an easy-reference alphabetical format, The New Basics clearly lays out the concerns you may face as aparent and explains how to solve them -- without fuss, without stress, and without harming your child by using unnecessary medicines or interventions.

With sensitivity and love, Dr. Michel describes proven techniques for keeping your children healthy and happy without driving yourself crazy. He will show you how to set positive habits for sleeping and eating and how to treat ailments early and effectively. You'll learn when antibiotics are helpful and when they can be harmful. If you're having trouble breast feeding, pumping, or bottle weaning, Dr. Michel has the advice to set you back on track. If after several months your baby is still not sleeping through the night, The New Basics will provide you with tried-and-true methods to help ease this difficult transition for babies and parents.

Dr. Michel recognizes that you're probably asking the same questions his own patients' parents frequently ask, so he includes a section called "Real Questions from Real Parents" throughout the book. You'll find important answers about treating asthma, head injuries, fevers, stomach bugs, colic, earaches, and other ailments. More than just a book on how to care for your child's physical well-being, The New Basics also covers such parenting challenges as biting, hitting, ADD, separation anxiety, how to prevent the terrible twos (and threes and fours ...), and preparing your child for a new sibling.

Amazon.com Review
Pediatrician Michel Cohen delights in offering anxious parents unconventional wisdom about children and toddlers: "less medicine is often the best medicine."Following an A to Z format, Cohen successfully skewers myths about every aspect of childcare. Using generic case kids "Lucy" and "Jimmy," and "real questions from real parents" he offers a compendium of health care information. Whether talking about behavior (bed-wetting, thumb sucking, school anxiety), symptoms (green mucus, earwax or eczema), or prevention (immunization, vitamins, toothbrushing), Cohen's approach is fresh and his tone is wise and wry--when discussing the drawbacks of medication for carsickness, he suggests that the best remedy is a plastic bag. Consistent core beliefs underline Cohen's alphabet: Doctors should not medicate all ills, antibiotics weaken natural immunity, you can't spoil your baby, but you can spoil your life.This practical, enjoyable guide is limited only by its short A-Z format--the information is so clear and valuable that parents will surely want to hear more from Dr. Cohen. --Barbara Mackoff ...

5-0 out of 5 stars What a relief!
This book is such a relief for new parents. Dr. Cohen's laid back philosophies and explanations make a lot of sense and take the pressure off of many situations that come up with a baby. I was one stressed out, worried, first time mother and this book helped put many things into perspective and let me take a deep breath and chill out a little!

5-0 out of 5 stars Love Love Love this book
This book really covers all of the basics and then some.I found it to be a reassuring source of information, whenever I have a question.It provides a no nonsense direct answer with some humor thrown in!!!
Love it!

1-0 out of 5 stars Useless!!
The doctor is only interested in sounding "cool"...I definitely prefer the other doctors in his office - anyone but him!!

5-0 out of 5 stars Our Baby Bible - A must for every new parent!
We received many baby books before the birth of our son, all of the well known ones of course.We also received this particular book from a friend who swore by it.After we bought our son home, whenever we needed to reference a specific topic or had questions, we would read each book.By the end of the first week, all the other books were put on a shelf and this one remained on our bedside table and is still there 10 months later!Dr. Cohen explains just about everything you can think of in plain old english that is easy to understand and grasp.Additionally, every topic is alphabetized and easy to locate, especially when you have a screaming baby or mommy and need help quickly.Most everything made sense and helped us to relax without always rushing to the phone to call the pediatrician at all hours of the day and night.This has become our bible for the baby and we absolutely love it, use it, and quite often gift it to parents-to-be.Strongly recommend that every parent have a copy in their personal library, it is that good and helpful in our opinion.

5-0 out of 5 stars The New Basics by Michel Cohen
I absolutely LOVE this book!! All of the little concerns that I have had as a first time parent he addressed in this book.The things he said made me feel much more confident in my abilities.I would recommend this book to ANYONE that is a parent. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Spock's Still the Authority
Ten years ago with the birth of my first child, I received 6 different books on baby care--all from the best sellers list.Over the next 10 years each of them, at one time or another, was heaved against a wall at 2 am or tossed into the kitchen trash can.Dr. Spock's Baby and Child Care helped me to correctly diagnose croup in my 6 month old daughter, which led to a call to the pediatrician as opposed to a trip to the ER.Dr. Spock calmly and reassuringly helps parents learn THEY are the experts about their own children.

5-0 out of 5 stars Nothing else as thorough and easy to read
As a second-time mother who's read Dr. Spock, Dr. Brazelton, and Dr. Sears' baby care books, I still reach for Spock whenever I have a question, or an uncertainty about something. This book is extensive in its coverage of both big and little issues, from diapering to feeding, and on into adolescence, ecompassing details as well as emotional aspects of what you're doing, if applicable. I find his philosophies and techniques to be a terrific common sense, middle ground, and reassuring resource. Even if you enjoy other parenting books, this one is a must- sort of an encyclopedia of infant/child issues, as the index is detailed and thorough. Keep this one in your library!

5-0 out of 5 stars For those who read it thoroughly, an excellent work
It would appear that some reviewers vehmently loath Dr. Spock yet they quite blatantly have missed the very key point of everything he said. Throughout the book he stresses numerous times the importance of following YOUR instincts and that he is only SUGGESTING methods for CERTAIN situations and he states quite clearly that it is of the utmost importance to realize that every child is different and parents are human and therefore you should not apply his methods, or any other "experts" methods to ALL cases without using YOUR OWN judgements. The core of everything Dr. Spock said was love your children and enjoy the experience of being a parent. He gives confidence to first time parents and a great deal of helpful advice on every aspect of baby and child care. One can get a great deal out of Dr. Spock's work, but only if they are patient, thorough readers with a certain amount of common sense.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Final Frontier... of childcare?
Any "Star Trek" fan would not want this book! It turns out it's not about "Star Trek"! It's about Childcare! Who would have guessed? We're loosing power, Scotty!

5-0 out of 5 stars The Best Childcare Book Ever !
I'm shocked that some people didn't like this book. I have found it to be warm, practical, compassionate and right on the money when it comes to describing the typical developmental stages children go through, as well as any problems or medical ailments they might have. It's definitely the first book I reach for whenever my children get sick, or enter some new developmental stage I'm not familiar with. Forget Penelope Leach, Terry Brazelton and the rest; Dr. Spock is the best! ... Read more
