The ones i frequently refer to and find informative as well as easy to read are:
-New Pregnancy and Birth book by Miriam Stoppard
- K.I.S.S Guide to Pregnancy
- What to Expect When You are Expecting
- Up the Duff
Have fun learning about the joys of preg - it's truly an amazing experience!!!
I liked " Conception, Pregnancy and Birth" by Miriam Stoppard, found it very informative and practical.
I didnt really enjoy Kaz Cookes book but instead preferred another one of a similar vein called " A best Friends guide to Pregnancy" by Vicki Iovine, very funny and good to keep your spirits upa dn know you are not the only one experiencing things. Think with that one you might have to buy it online as not many bookshops stock it.
In last years Bounty Bag i got a Pregnancy Book. Its free and you should get it. Its got good info in it without blowing your mind iykwim.
In saying that though, i booked into hospital on wednesday and didnt get a bounty bag . Arent they giving them out anymore, or is because ive had 2 kids that i dont get one.
I think Up the Duff is fabulous.. Its a great read and is really entertaining. I look forward to reading it each week.
I am also always thumbing the pages of "what to expect when you are expecting" - it seems to cover almost everything, its a good sanity check when you think something is a little weird.
