Hi all
Does anyone have any suggestions on some good books or material that will help us in things we need to be aware of financially, physically etc in preparing for our first child.

My husband and I just want to make sure that we are prepared and are knowledgeable out it.

Thanks

I've heard some good things about a book by Dr. Kevin Lehman called, "First Time Mom".

One of my all-time favorites by Dr. James Dobson is "Parenting Isn't for Cowards."

As for other parenting books :
1) The Christian Mom's Answer Book by Sandra P. Aldrich

2) The Complete Book of Christian Parenting & Child Care: A Medical & Moral Guide to Raising Happy, Healthy Children
by William Sears, Martha Sears, William, M.D. Sears "During the final months of your pregnancy or early months of parenthood, it's important to consider what parenting style you're going to adopt..." (more)
SIPs: mother burnout, sharing sleep, child feel right, your fussy baby, junk sugar (more)

3) The Complete Parenting Book: Practical Help From Leading Experts
by David, Dr. Stoop

4) What to Expect When You're Expecting, Third Edition by Heidi Murkoff

5) Pregnancy for Dummies by Joanne Stone, Keith Eddleman, Mary Duenwald (Not a Christian written book, but it really has some very detailed information that is quite good.)

Hope that helps a little bit in terms of what you might be looking for.
And, congratulations!!!
