Expectant mother and expectant father books?

I just found out I'm pregnant, yay!! There are so many pregnancy books out there and I would like to get a few. One for me (to start) and one for my husband. Any suggestions? Not baby name books

    My favorite pregnancy book was "From the Hips" because it was so down to earth and it had real commentary from real women. "A Girlfriend's guide to Pregnancy" is good and down to earth as well. You will probably get "What to expect when you're expecting" from someone but I felt like it was very disorganized (you end up using the index for symptoms as opposed to reading it month to month). Any expectant father book that has Dr. Sears as an author or co-author is great.

    Once you have that baby, get "The happiest baby on the block"! Its the BEST.

    What to Expect When Expecting is the best for educational purposes.

    For amusement and enjoyment you have to get Jenny McCarthy's "Belly Laughs." I read that book twice and I'm not one to read a book or watch a movie twice.

    for you is what to expect when your expecting.

    for him: "what to expect when your wife is expanding" by Thomas Hill

    its a parody of the one for you. its pretty funny but serious at the same time. he would like it better than a detailed version of all the things that are going to happen to you. but it lets him know enough that is going on with you and the baby to understand and connect to you. its pretty neat book. you should get it.

    My husband and that i study "Your being pregnant Week by using Week" mutually. we'd study a financial ruin each Saturday night. It replaced into super for him, via fact he felt like he knew what replaced into happening and made him experience greater a factor of it. That e book is likewise super, via fact it aspects estimates for a fashion huge the toddler is. (A pinto bean, a small lime, i think of those have been a pair of the comparisons.) That replaced into super, via fact on the commencing up of my being pregnant, when I wasn't displaying, it replaced into annoying for my husband to even draw close that i replaced into truly pregnant, and that he replaced into truly going to be a dad. solid luck and congratulations!
