Child's Medical Record Book

Rating:
Summary: The gold standard for record books.
Review: I've looked at record books and this one has it all. This is the one that I will use. I have put my child's right next to my copy of Dr. Spock, and it goes with us whenever we travel, or see the doctor.

Summary: Child's Medical Record Book
Review: This book is not a paperback, it is more the quality of a passport; and after years of use (my children now ages 8 & 5) I can testify that it has really made my life easier. Try it, you will see.

Summary: Don't leave town without it
Review: This book tries to provide a place to keep all your records, but it's omissions and inconsistent layout make it unacceptable for me. The page entitled "Birth of Child" doesn't even have a place for the birth weight, length or head circumference ("Progress Reports" for that information starts at 2 weeks). Teething and Dental Records are completely ignored; instead, you get 20 of the 72 pages relating to Medicine and Dosage (allowing 108 enties)! I'd rather spend my money (about 1/4 the cost of this book) on the "American Academy of Pediatrics Child Health Record"; which despite its many omissions, packs much more into its 24 pages, (such as: birth details, developmental landmarks, growth charts and recommendations for vacinations and dental records).

Summary: A perfect way to keep your chlid's own medical history.
Review: This slim book is an effortless way to keep a chronological log of your child's medical history, from birth through the age of 18, and takes the chore out of record keeping. It's self contained and very easy to use. Every new parent should have one for each child.

Rating:
Summary: Handy, practical, sensible.
Review: This slim volume can make a real difference for you and your child. It's hard enough to remember the names of all the child's doctors, much less each illness, injury, vaccination (and booster), and antibiotic. The author has created a sturdy volume to hold all -- and only -- the crucial medical information about the child.

The sturdy record book is made to last a lifetime. This is not a book for just baby records, though, but will follow your child from birth into adulthood.

I highly recommend this book for new parents, and in fact any parent who wants help organizing and maintaining their child's medical record.

Summary: Don't leave town without it
Review: Ths book has come in handy numerous times, most recently on a trip out of state. The doctor was pleased, and impressed, when we were able to give the relevant history (medications, dosages, results) on the spot. We've found this to be the single best baby gift we received, and we've given copies to new mothers many times since, always with great success.

This book contains the information you need year to year. Your child and the pediatrician will thank you for getting, and using, this durable book.
