Any good pregnancy/birthing book suggestions?

[mamapavlic]

I love to read, and I'm one of those weirdos who really enjoys reading about pregnancy (tips and so on...)
However, only one pregnancy book has really been my style so far- You! Having a Baby by Dr.Oz.... I like that it's not just paragraphs of information, but has quizzes and cute little tips. Straight, boring ramblings are not the kind of books I can sit down and read...
Any book suggestions on the topics of pregnancy or even labor/birthing?
I'd really appreciate it.

I really like "Your pregnancy week by week" and also the "Girlfriend's guide to pregnancy"...i couldnt stand the "what to expect books"..theyre soo...meh....

i just bought Ina May's Guide to Childbirth. I'm hoping to get more inspiration to get through birth without an epidural because it really did interfere with pushing and stuff last time.

Yes! Have you read Birthing From Within? It's an AMAZING read...I think you'll enjoy it. Also, anything by Ina May.

Here's a good list with some more good pregnancy books.

I have this book - I found it really good. Helped me remember to let my body do it's job and not tense up against it, and really focus on breathing through contractions. Got through both my labours with only gas and air!

I havnt read any but my hubby got one of those for dummies books on becoming a dad. He loves it, goes through the whole pregnancy, birth and after. Xx
