New to The Bump

books?

I'm looking for a good 'talk you through' pregnancy book.  Suggestions please?  Also, any good books for dads?

Obviously, I'm new here which is why I'm posting here.  I'll take suggestions for books but also suggestions on if another board is more appropriate for this question!  Thanks!

Re: books?

  • I've been reading Mayo Clinic's Guide to a Healthy Pregnancy.  It's  a week by week book, so far I feel it has good information.

  • I just ordered the Girlfriends Guide to Pregnancy but it hasn't arrived yet.  I've heard good things, though.  :)

    You might want to re-post on your birth month because not that many people read this board... and you might get more responses there.

  • I have the What to Expect When You're Expecting, which I enjoyed, Jenny McCarthy's "Belly Laughs", which makes you want to laugh and cry at the same time, and Ina May's Guide to Childbirth, which is terrifying and empowering. I've also heard good things about the Mayo Clinic's Guide.

  • thanks for the ideas!  time to browse the local library (and hope not to bump into anyone we know since we haven't told anyone yet!).
