  • I liked it because it was a straight forward guide to pregnancy and childbirth. It wasn’t cutesy or jargony and was easy to read. The topics were broad from planning to the postpartum period. They of course focus on pregnancy/childbirth medically but also talk about what you and your partner could experience emotionally. It felt thorough to me.

    My copy was gifted to me so it’s also a factor why I personally liked it lol just saying. Despite, find something that makes sense to you guys. Cheers.


  • I’m late on responding to this post, but we read “Mayo Clinic - Guide to a Healthy Pregnancy.” It focuses on pregnancy for the birthing parent and the partner. It also discusses the 4th trimester (transitioning into parenthood/postpartum). It was nice to know I wasn’t reading total crap on the internet. Ooh and I highly recommend the Baby Center app to complement the book. Congrats!



  • Had a similar night. Spouse has a cold, and we’re on baby-watch. We made pizza and snuggled on the couch as safely as we could lol. While on the couch, we watched New Year’s celebrations on the tv and listened to music. Random neighbors were doing fireworks so we had plenty of entertainment. We’re low key, so it was honestly very enjoyable.

    Hope you guys feel better soon!
