Best "Intro to AP" book for a new mom who loves her career?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I have a friend who just had a new baby. I think she'd be open to AP and especially to natural family living, but I think The Baby Book would insult and alienate her with its SAHM-centric bias. Are there any AP introductory books that are geared specifically towards working moms and ideally include information/tips on incorporating a great nanny into an AP family?

Not working mom-specific and not AP-specific, but Penelope Leach's Your Baby And Child is gentle, and certainly not anti-working-mom. She is biased in favor of nannies vs. daycare (some of that might be cultural since she is British), but she isn't anti-daycare either.

Thanks, I'll take a look at it! Being a new mom is stressful enough; I don't want to add any stress by giving her a book that tells her SAHM'ing is the only "right" choice.
