Medically Easy

This was my bible with my first child. I buy one for everyone close to me who is expecting. It's not just informative but easy to use. The process of elimination, isolating what your child's illness could be until you speak to or get to the pediatrician , provides peace of mind. It's the only source I ever needed. I still use it, and for the adults as well!

Outstanding Reference !!!!

Miriam Stoppard has written an outstanding work of reference of common & not so common childhood illnesses & injury. The outstanding feature of this work teaches the parent when it's OKay NOT to take baby to the doctor. It teaches the parent what problems can effectively be dealt with at home, and how to deal with each problem. It also includes threshold signs & symptoms that identify when it really is time to get the little one to professional, competent medical care. The book also advises the parent when it's time to activate EMS for the most urgent medical emergencies. As an Emergency Paramedic I give copies of this book away to friends, family and patients like candy. This is an outstanding work that no home with children under ten years of age should be without.

So helpful!

This is a wonderful resource book. It is so easy to find what you need and has saved a few trips to the doctor for us. I have used it for years and it makes a great new mother gift.

My most valuable resource since the birth of my first child.

This book has always provided useful information 'at your fingertips' whenever needed. From the most minor baby afflictions to diseases that run rampant through daycares and schools. Notifications and postings of sicknesses making their way through these social centers become more manageable when I can reference them and be on the lookout for symptoms. It has been a real life saver!I buy this book for all the new mothers that I know.
