I've been thinking a lot about how much I don't know for when the babies are actually here. I'd like to start reading some more books about parenting issues, whether it's sleep, feeding methods, parenting styles, etc.
I already have Happiest Baby on the Block and I'm planning on getting Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child. What else should I put on my list??

Moms on call 0-6 book and Happiest Baby. I skimmed portions of healthy sleep to get the gist, but that thing just put me to sleep. I feel like it could have been condensed into 50 pages. What new mom has time for a gazillion page book on repeat? And FWIW, for HBOTB I thought the DVD was just as good as reading the book.

Bringing Up Bebe is great! My husband and I both read it (okay, he listened to the audio book) and centered our parenting philosophies around the ideas in it.

As a general reference book I really liked Dr. Sear's "The Baby Book".

I like Sear's The Baby Book, and I also liked The Science of Parenting (which I read about a year ago for work).

I really liked "Bringing Up Bebe" and I LOVE Penelope Leach's "Your Baby and Child."
