  • Finding the best information on baby products
Great book take it with me every where

  • They thought of things that I didn't know I didn't know!
Bless these people who found a crib that accommodates short parents! I didn't even think of this, but I will definitely be buying their crib recommended for short mamas! Who knew!

  • I’d be lost without this book
Feeling panicky walking down the baby aisle? Lost in a sea of Amazon reviews? No idea what you REALLY need to buy new vs. used/hand-me-down vs. eh, don’t bother? I cannot recommend this book enough! Baby Bargains is the bible for expecting parents. The authors exhaustively gather info from real parents, safety tests, baby product expos, and more to cut through the clutter and give you solid, digestible advice. They update it every 2 years. I bought this when I was pregnant nine years ago and read it cover to cover. I bought the latest edition for this baby. In between, I’ve bought this for at least 5 friends as soon as I found out they were pregnant. I am in no way affiliated with the authors or company. I’m just a big fan! Sample pages below. This will save you so much more money and hassle than the $12 price tag. Even if you’ve already created a registry, you will use this book, trust me! ... show more

  • Baby Gear Bible!
I first got this book from my mother when I was pregnant with my first child in 2008. I found it so easy-to-read and helpful that I bought the revised editions when I was pregnant with my other children in 2012 and 2022! I also like to add it onto baby shower gifts. One thing I really love about this book is that it is very specific and takes affordability into consideration for highly rated baby items. Not everybody wants to spend $1500 on a crib! I recommend this book for all parents, whether it's your first or fifth baby! The book is revised nearly every year. ... show more

  • Great for a 1st time Mom like me
As a first time Mom I was clueless bout what I needed. I read this book in a day and built my registry in a day. I highly recommend it for the Mom that wants good quality proven products without getting caught up in name brands or wasting money on buying drink.

  • Dont bother with the Freebies link on their site
Just cracked the book and it says go to their site to get a bunch of discounts, coupons and "freebies" there are like 20+ links and every single one of them 404 lol... not off to a good start

  • Can’t imagine being a 1st time mom without it!
I happened to stumble upon this book by accident and now I can’t imagine having braved the baby world without it. It’s so much more than learning the best products at affordable prices! It’s a very informative tutorial on all baby products! An absolute must for all new parents who want to avoid making costly decisions on products you don’t need and have confidence in buying safe and reputable products for a happy baby and parent! Definitely helps with overwhelm having a book walk you through products in a systematic manner. Can’t start too early either! If you’re soon to be pregnant or TTC, you can build your Amazon wish list online to keep track of items you’ll want to buy. Can’t recommend more highly! Makes me want to buy the rest of her baby books! :) ... show more
