Baby 411, Third Edition: Clear Answers & Smart Advice for Your Baby's First Year (Baby 411: Clear Answers and ...42 reviews
Denise Fields, Ari Brown

Windsor Peak Press, 2007

A Must-Have Book!
My wife and I recently had twins and these were our first children. There were some complications as well and the whole experience was very overwhelming. We read probably 10 or more books and nothing can compare to this book. It has the answer or explanation for every question we had. They should give this book away to all new parents at the hospital. Buy it now! 		  
  







  
  
What to Expect When You're Expecting: 4th Edition76 reviews
Heidi Murkoff, Sharon Mazel

Workman Publishing Company, 2008

Great resource for the pregnant
I ordered this book when I found out I was pregnant with my first child. Many of my family members had used earlier editions with their pregnancies. I was not disappointed. I like how it breaks up the chapters into months (weeks) of pregnancy. It goes into details about symptoms and reliefs, development of the baby, and questions you may have. I love the pictures of the growing baby and also the ... 		  
  







  
  
Mayo Clinic Guide to a Healthy Pregnancy131 reviews
Mayo Clinic

Collins Living, 2004

Chuck "What to Expect," this is the only one you need!
I bought this book on a whim because I thought the Mayo Clinic must know some things about pregnancy. As soon as I opened it, I realized how much time I wasted reading little bits of "What to Expect" every month. I love the way this book is set up: the week by week development bits are all together. The pregnancy illnesses and complications are all together. The labor and delivery bits are all ... 		  
  







  
  
Ina May's Guide to Childbirth213 reviews
Ina May Gaskin

Bantam, 2003

Enlightening and useful--a must-read
I rarely review anything, but this book inspired me. Although I had heard about it many times, I initially resisted reading it because I was worried it would be preachy and/or only applicable to people planning a birth with midwives. While I will still have a hospital birth with an OB, I learned numerous highly useful things from this book. Ina May is a very experienced and intuitive midwife, and ...

Ian Davis

Three Rivers Press, 1999

Great Daddy Book

Conceived after fertility problems using this book!!!
The reason I have a beautiful baby girl is because of this book! I got pregnant the first time I ovulated in 4 months because I knew what to look for! This is a must read for every woman, not just ones trying to get pregnant. Knowledge is power, take power over your body!! Most of us have no clue about the intricacies of how our bodies work.

Raising Cain: Protecting the Emotional Life of Boys108 reviews
Dan Kindlon, Michael Thompson

Ballantine Books, 2000

Must read... and you won't be able to put it down!
This is the best book I've seen about raising boys. My husband and I both have read every single page -- it's the first parenting book we've ever really read together, and we've talked about all of it. My husband felt like he was reading about all the secret struggles he went through as a child too. This is the first book that's made me want to change the way I parent...

Vicki Iovine

Pocket, 2007

Very funny... much needed humor when you are preggo
My sister-in-law gave me this book to read when I was pregnant. It is very funny! Its the "everything you need to know about pregnancy that no one will tell you" book. Just what someone with fatigue, gas, swollen ankles and a squished bladder needs! Relax, put your feet up and enjoy this great, light-hearted book. 		  
  







  
  
The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work: A Practical Guide from the Country's Foremost Relationship ...143 reviews
John M. Gottman, Nan Silver

Three Rivers Press, 1999

Buy the book, not the Kindle version
This is an excellent book full of interesting information and useful exercises. If you or your counseling clients want to make marriage work, this could really help. I bought the Kindle version, though, and now I have no access to the exercises. I borrowed the book from the library and made some copies of the exercises. There are so many good ones, this turned out to be a lot of time and ... 		  
  







  
  
Raising Your Spirited Child Rev Ed: A Guide for Parents Whose Child Is More Intense, Sensitive, Perceptive, ...27 reviews
Mary Sheedy Kurcinka

Harper Paperbacks, 2006

What every parent nees to know
Raising your spirited child is a book that has made a significant difference for me as a parent of a spirited girl. How refreshing to read a book that puts my daughter and family in a postive light and gives meaningful advice and tools. This book has helped make family outings, morning transitions, and social events "do-able" and even fun. It really helps that this author has added real life ... 		  
  







  
  
The Belly Book: A Nine-Month Journal for You and Your Growing Belly (Potter Style)58 reviews
Amy Krouse Rosenthal

Potter Style, 2006

Great scrapbook
I have really enjoyed filling out my Belly Book! Of all the pregnancy journals I looked at, this is by far my favorite. It has good prompts for what to write, and it's fun to see the before and after pictures of my growing belly. 		  
  







  
  
Queen Bees and Wannabes: Helping Your Daughter Survive Cliques, Gossip, Boyfriends, and Other Realities of ...94 reviews
Rosalind Wiseman

Three Rivers Press, 2002

Enlightening for Dad
Simply put, I found the book to far exceed my expectations for it. As a male, the author's insights into girls' social roles and interactions were a huge eye-opener. And as the father of three girls, I appreciate all the examples of specific situations girls may find themselves in, how their thinking/social conditioning may have contributed, and how they can extricate themselves. As others ... 		  
  







  
  
Children of the Self-Absorbed: A Grown-up's Guide to Getting over Narcissistic Parents68 reviews
Nina W. Brown

New Harbinger Publications, 2008

Excellent Starter for Self Evaluation
The book is written in simple language and therefore very accessible to those not familiar with the field of psychology. Additionally, the book is very interactive, forcing the reader to be invested in the book's content and therefore their own development. Nina Brown is knowledgeable and is able to relay her knowledge differently than most authors of psychological texts. I have read many texts ...

The Birth Partner, Third Edition: A Complete Guide to Childbirth for Dads, Doulas, and All Other Labor ...12 reviews
Penny Simkin

Harvard Common Press, 2007

Very good book.
Very good and very informative book. This book goes into all the possible problems that can arise during childbirth and explains how the birth partner can help the mother as well as themselves. I think it definitely will prepare a first-time husband for what to expect during childbirth and how to handle certain situations. I love that it was written not to the mother, but to the partner and the ...

The Pregnancy Journal: A Day-to-Day Guide to a Healthy and Happy Pregnancy254 reviews
A. Christine Harris

Chronicle Books, 2005

The Pregnancy Journal
This is the best book a newly pregnant woman could own. Not only does it have interesting and valuable information about the growth of your baby, your own body changes, nutritional facts and parenting tips but it has spaces for you to record your own personal journey through your pregnancy that you can keep forever and even show your unborn baby when it's grown. This is the second time I have ... 		  
  







  
  
Birthing from Within: An Extra-Ordinary Guide to Childbirth Preparation124 reviews
CNM, MA, Pam England, PhD, Rob Horowitz

Partera Press, 1998

Wonderful book
I just finished the book last night. I have thoroughly enjoyed doing some of the birth art exercises and just thinking about my pregnancy and birth from a different perspective (beyond the physical - i.e. looking at pregnancy, labor, and birth from a spiritual and emotional aspect). If you are looking for a "what to expect" type book, this is not for you. 		  
  







  
  
The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome52 reviews
Tony Attwood

Jessica Kingsley Publishers, 2008

read this book and you will understand a lot of things
I read this book by pure chance (first I read Thinking in Pictures, Expanded Edition: My Life with Autism) because I know a child who has difficulties to learn at school. And I buy this book to have a good scientific reference on AS and high functioning autism. And I was satisfied beyond the limits but for someone else so much closer to me. Believe me this book will make you understand a lot of ...
