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 mostly went with my gut feeling and listened to the doctor, only when specific things came up I tried to google it, but I feel there was nothing special or unexpected.

    We have been having babies through sexual reproduction for many miliona of years, it’s in our DNA, basically it’s an instinct. At least as long as long as there are no complications.
