I'm looking for recommedations as there are soooo many books out there (I'm sure there are threads about this somewhere, but so far I could only find a bb article with recommendations for ttc literature).
So, what are (in your mind) the best conception, pregnancy and birth books?
(if it helps to narrow it down: We are starting our ttc journey soon, no fertility issues we know of yet, interested in natural birth/ waterbirth)
Tia :D
Conception: if there are no problems, there's not much to read here! Miriam Stoppard's Conception, Pregnancy and Birth may fill in any blanks you don't already know.
Pregnancy: I quite like the Miriam Stoppard for the pictures - Liebling finds it very helpful to picture baby sizes in utero. What to expect when you're expecting underwhelms me, but others like it.
Birth: Birth Crisis by Shelia Kitzinger was the last one I read, and would recommend. Other authors for you to consider would be Ina May Gaskin (a midwife) or Michel Odent (an obstetrician).
Thanks TFB, will look into those!

Have breastfeeding and baby sleep lists too :)
Ohh cool! Thanks!
Kelly, is there a list of recommended pregnancy books, too? Or a thread? I'm sure I saw it somewhere a while back :think:
I'm pretty sure I had one too, don't know where its gone! Will have a look for it!
