what baby/pregnancy books do you have?

When i was TTC i bought Taking Charge of your Fertility which i loved. it was very informative.
I know there are lots of books out there that journey your pregnancy.
Does anyone have one that they love and would recommend? I'm looking for an informative book with pictures.
Thanks

Re: what baby/pregnancy books do you have?

baby bargains is a must have. it details key items you will need, or think you need that you don't...it rates different brands of products and reccomends best products based on this rating system. it gives great advice.

I also have the key "what to expect when you're expecting"

I have:

What to Expect When You're Expecting"

Your Pregnancy Week by Week


DH has:

She's Having a Baby - An I'm Having A Breakdown (gift from me Chat Icon )

Your Pregnancy Week by Week For the Expectant Father.


As a side note - I just read "Belly Laughs" by Jenny McCarthy. Not an actual "preggo info" book, but I read it in one day back and forth on the train. Very funny book Chat Icon

Re: what baby/pregnancy books do you have?

ahhh I have a bunch of books!! From my last pregnancy... I must have at least 10 books.

One good one a friend got me was "YOU having a baby"... pretty intersesting.

I have all the usual books, what to expect, pregnancy day by day, the funny jenny mccarthy one, We have a father one too, and there are others that I can't think of.

We even have baby name books too.

So far just what to expect when you're expecting. Baby Bargains sounds interesting though!

-What to Expect
-Your Child's Health (recommended by a few of our pediatrician friends)
-and if you are planning to breast-feed, a friend of mine highly recommends "So That's What They're For." My friend is a nurse at a large NICU and also a lactation consultant; she said that it's her #1 book she recommends to moms, and they always thank her for it!

Baby Bargins and What to Expect When Expecting.... I heard the Jenny M. book is good but I hate her so I refuse to read it!


Most of the stuff in What to Expect When Expecting you can read online. The weekly updates are the same online and in the books.
