My wife just had her first pregnancy doctor's appointment and I am feeling under prepared. I am looking for worthwhile and hopefully empirically based books about pregnancy and parenting. I normally have no problems doing my own research and scourging the library to find out what I need but there's so much it's overwhelming.

So what books have you all read that are worthwhile? What is worth looking at?

I love to read many different valuable books so I can get some diverse ideas to come up with. If you can get some suggestions from your librarian wife that's what I'm looking for

I will talk to her and see what she says.

Thank you. Reading things helps me feel calmer and like I am preparing.

Hey, I haven't forgotten. She had a super busy day yesterday but she said she'd try to think of a few today.

No rush. One of the best things about Lemmy is how slow it is. We can have worthwhile threads and discussions for weeks
