I am looking for some good books

Hi ladies, 14 weeks and 4 days with my first child. I am looking for some good    books that not only cover pregnancy but also what to do once the baby is born. All recommendations are welcome.

Birthing from within is prob my fav book. Otherwise Ina mays guide to childbirth. Also the other baby book, a natural approach to baby's first year. I really don't like the what to expect books, you are better off finding a family Dr that you trust and can call day or night with questions

I read a book called my pregnancy and birth. It's won't help after baby but great info for pregnancy and labor etc. I personally don't care for the what to expect books :-(

I have the what to expect when your expecting series but I also have one called "your pregnancy week by week" by glade b. Curtis, m.d.,ob/gyn and Judith schuler,m.s. I like this one also because it gives detailed description on each stage. And has some pictures also.

I got the "what to expect when you're expecting" series. I got them at a second hand store for cheap. I appreciate them.

Mayo clinic is good but not extensive for post natal.
