This isn’t already on here- right? Any book recs for new/STMs? We are all learning so much on the interwebz- time to read some real books (for me ha!). 

i just finished Expecting Better and if you like hard data and an economist perspective on many, many studies about many, many things pregnancy - I couldn’t put it down. Loved it. 

What are you reading?

    I definitely recommend The Wonder Weeks book! There is an app that goes along with it too. Great for FTMs and STMs. It’s geared toward when the baby is here. It explains all the developmental leaps the baby goes through and what milestones their brains are working on. My son followed the leaps to a T! It was incredible to be in the “loop” on what was going on in his little brain, and explained a lot when sleep was a mess. Such a fun book and app to follow through out your little ones first year or so.

    @septoctkids I followed the wonder weeks app with my first. So helpful I didn't realize they had book I will have to look into it. 

      I am currently reading Mom Truths. It makes me laugh and I feel like I can relate to how they were feeling. I also follow the 2 girls that wrote it on Facebook.

    @kdl89 yes! The book is a great addition to the app. It goes into a lot more detail.

    I really liked Wonder Weeks too. It was so nice to know th craziness was normal. I also really liked the big Dr. Sears Baby book. It covers everything that might pop up in a non alarmist way.

    This baby is my third but I loved the book “A Girlfriend’s Guide to Pregnancy” with my first. Recently I’ve been devouring all of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s books. So good! I finished Daisy Jones and the Six, and the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and several others. So good!!!

    This is what we’re reading right now... 2 year old DS and DD on the way, so a book for each of us and one for both of us! I’ll report back about how they are...
