Pregnancy/Parenting Books

Hi girls, wondering if anyone has suggestions and recommendations of books to read. I currently have "Up the Duff" (Kaz Cooke) and "What to expect when you're expecting" which are probably enough to help me with the pregnancy stuff, but am looking for more specific books leading up to the birth/after the birth. Eg. breastfeeding books, sleeping books, taking baby home books. Not sure I'm making sense here, sorry :wall:

So far I've heard good things about:
"Baby Love" Robyn Barker
"The Science of Parenting" Margot Sunderland
"The Happiest Baby on the Block" Dr Harvey Karp

Any other thoughts???

I've just bought 'Gentle Birth, Gentle Mothering' (by Sarah Buckley) which is supposed to be fabulous. I'm hoping to get into it this weekend

The Margot Sunderland book is awesome - really appealed to my scientific training. Don't get me wrong, it's very easy to read. But it also really explains how gentle/attachment parenting techniques are actually in sync with a baby's neurological development. Plus it's from the UK (I get annoyed with American texts!). I used to consider such techniques as all a bit 'hippy la la' but I wouldn't consider doing it any other way now :)
Good on you for looking for reading material beyond pregnancy and birth - my doula is all for getting stuck into parenting book before becoming a parent (she's lent us heaps of books including this one). Reading them has really helped me sort out a lot of 'issues' I have with the way I was brought up before they explode in my face with my own little one to take care of.

All of THESE books come highly recommended by BellyBelly.

We love Margot Sunderlands book here too but there are so many good ones at the link above... guaranteed you'll love all of them :)
