Re: Good 1st Book To Buy?
I would totally recommend The Happiest Baby on the Block (book or DVD) and Healthy Sleep Habits Happy Child. They helped me sooo much. My DD was very colicy, extremely fussy and had reflux. Those books saved me! I wish I would have read them just before I had her instead of waiting until after she was born.

What to Expect When You're Expecting, hands down. It will explain what's happening to your body and your baby week by week, walks you through labor and also discusses symptoms, what's normal and when to call the dr.

"Your Pregnancy Week by Week" was my favorite when I was pregnant with my first DC.

Ditto! Loved this book, it was my pregnancy bible the first time around. I used to constantly grab it to look things up and really enjoyed reading it as I went along.

Oh yes, I agree with Baby Bargains, too, but you won't need that until your 2nd trimester when you start to register for things.
