All I have is What to Expect... which is probably the worst pregnancy book out there. I can't remember what I'm "supposed" to eat, what the ol' fetus is up to in there, etc. Any recommendations?

A new mom recommended this one to me and so far, it's spot on.

If you want something fun and lighthearted to read, pick up Belly Laughs by Jenny McCarthy. It's just silly.

Nah, I've read both of those. I meant like a week by week thing, more medical than either of those.

Thanks though!

Sorry, no help then. I can tell you NOT to get Joy of Pregnancy. It's a month to month guide and it's worse than What to Expect. I borrowed it from my midwives and it's awful.

What about Your Pregnancy Week by Week? I've seen that recommended on here in the past. I haven't read it but it might be worth checking out.

I picked up the Mayo Clinic Guide to a Healthy Pregnancy based on the reviews on Amazon.com - I like it so far.

I have "great expectations" and I really like it - easy to find what I'm looking for (and the weeks are broken down into chapters and it says the week at the top corner of the page so it's easy to flip to!

I have Your Pregnancy Week by Week and enjoy it.
