Books on your night stand...

I have What to Expect, Your Pregnancy Week by Week, Baby Bargains, Birthing from Within, and Baby Wise. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed lol. I hardly ever crack WTE and Preg Weekly only when I have a question and I usually just google it. BB I bought for the registry/nursery and so far I find it pretty helpful. I'm starting to read Birthing from Within on the recommedation of my MW. Baby Wise will just have to wait a little while. DH started it but I really need to read it for myself...I've heard great things about it. What's on your reading list?

    Natural Birth and the Faith-Filled Mother
