I will be having my baby in six months.  I have been reading just about every thing I can in order to help me prepare for my baby to come.   I came across web sites  that talk about teaching your baby to use sign language as a means to communicate with you better.

The few sites I read state that a baby can learn to use sign language by the age of six months.  Since hand and eye coordination delvopes sooner the verible skills.  Hence making a baby or toddler able to communicate their needs better.  I think this sounds good.  But in the end the sites I was on was trying to sell you their product on how you go about teaching your baby sign language.

The idea of this is really good.  If you can know what your child really wants without guessing at what they maybe trying to say to you. My husband thinks this is a nutty idea and that it is just a scam to sell you a product.   My question is has any one done this with their child?  Or does anyone know of someone that  has.   I think it worth looking into but do not want to be scammed out of money so that my husband can say I told you so.
