The Everything Get Ready for Baby Book: From Preparing the Nest and Choosing a Name to Playtime Ideas and Daycare--All You Need to Prepare for Your Bu

I love they way this book tell you waht is a must have and what is optional. Also, it gives you price ranges which is nice.

Yes, like you, I've also read WHAT TO EXPECT..., YOUR PREGNANCY WEEK BY WEEK, & THE PREGNANCY BOOK. Much of the material in those books can be, well, a little frightening. THE EVERYTHING GET READY FOR BABY BOOK covers lots of areas from planning a nursery, what you'll want for baby's "layette," lists of names to consider, lullabies, how to feed and bathe baby, playtime, what to pack for your hospital stay, and more. As first time expectant parents, my husband & I enjoyed reading this book together. It's fun - lots of eyecatching graphics and anecdotes - and would always bring a smile and get us excited for baby! This book makes a great gift, too, for expectant friends. We've already shared a copy with three other couples we know awaiting their own newborns. Read the other "hard facts" pregnancy books, too, but if you're looking for some good preparatory information within a light-hearted read, you'll enjoy adding this book to your expectant library. We did!

This book answered alot of questions. My husband and I had a terrific time reading it together. It has a lot of helpful hints and gave us some great ideas. Overall it is a very fun and informative book.
