| I also bought a bunch of books like the what to expect series, gina ford, books on breastfeeding and baby signs... Frankly speaking, looking back I wished I did not read so much as I was so filled with info that I became paranoid, every little thing requires a 'diagnosis' from one of these books...
I was als fantasising about feeding my baby on a schedule (e.g. ford's technique) and being able to do all these 'clever' things with the baby,but when you are facing a real baby, he/she will be the boss and will do things according to their own agenda. Basically all the research and theory that I had read went right out the window!
I will recommend 2 essential books 1) what to expect when you are expecting 2) what to expect in the first year, and invest the rest of the time on good quality sleep and quality time with the hubby as the little prince/ princess will be arriving soon and will expect lots of attention! Good luck and have fun preparing for your baby! |
