Hi

Expecting my first baby in May and am just wondering whether there are any books that have helped you out with becoming a parent? How to tips etc 

Thanks in advance.

DH is reading "Bringing Up Bebe" and really likes what the author has to say https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/bringing-up-bebe-pamela-druckerman/1110769840?ean=9780143122968

I on the other hand have not read anything, I'm all for winging it and doing what I feel comfortable with.

I liked the What To Expect books but took all advice and everything I read with a grain of salt bc every child is different and so is every family. Not everything will work for you as the book or someone tells you. Sometimes you'll even find tweaking the advice to fit your comforts is better for you and your family.

Happiest baby on the block and The baby whisperer solves all your problems were my two most helpful books.

Mayo Clinic has a very helpful baby's first year book for developmental/health related questions.
