    I really like Your Pregnancy Week by Week. It is positive, and interesting. 

    What to Expect... was kind of overload with info, and it seemed like everyother symptom listed in that book was a "possible sign of miscarriage" It really freaked me out the first time around, and I will not read it this time!

    I mainly read What to Expect When You're Expecting and Your Pregnancy Week by Week.
    After 20 months TTC with PCOS, we were blessed with twins!
    They arrived at 36 weeks after PTL and bedrest for 14 weeks. Lilypie Third Birthday tickers image

    same here..but i also loved the pregnancy journal..it gave you something for everyday, and places for you to write info about whats going on..so neat to look back on..

    since you mentioned baby bargains, are you thinking about baby books too? i did really like what to expect the first year :)

    sign up for babycenter.com, in the end their weekly updates were all i read.

    books i liked were bringing home your newborn and the baby whisperer

    Avoid "What to Expect" because almost everyone will tell you that it makes you paranoid. It gives you so much bad news and you really dont want to overanalyze all your symptoms.

    I got "Mayo Clinic Guide to a Healthy Pregnancy" but I also liked "Pregnancy Week by Week".

    For fun, I've heard "Belly Laughs" is hilarious. I haven't read it yet.
