Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Especially useful for first-time Jewish/Interfaith Moms!
My husband and I are expecting our first child, a girl, and wanted to learn about Jewish traditions surrounding her birth. This book is great - I wish the name section was a bit longer, but otherwise it is well-written and contains a lot of beautiful info.
Rating:  - Excellent reference book
This book is an excellent reference for expectant parents looking to celebrate Jewish traditions. I highly recommend it!
Rating: - Very informative
This book manages to pretty much cover all the bases about rituals and such when you are expecting. I realied heavily on it for my first child and with the twins, I was somewhat disappointed to see it didn't mention a thing about multiple births (especially since they are so common nowadays 1-in 100). But other than that - I was highly impressed with the content!
Rating: - a wealth of information to help you plan for your newborn
Each couple anticipating the arrival of a child is tuned into the Jewish saying that, "With each child, the world begins anew." Planning for the arrival of a newborn is filled with hope, excitement, nervousness, and profound love. Beyond these wonderful feelings are all the reality issues of how to choose a name and how to welcome this new being into the family and community. For Jewish families expecting a new arrival, Anita Diamant's "The New Jewish Baby Book" is an invaluable resource.
