Baby Book Help from BTDT Moms...

This is my first baby and I have relatively no experience with newborns. I'm looking for a baby book to help with some guidance and the choices are overwhelming.

Can anyone recommend any good books?

Baby Bargains!! Must have!! I buy this as a gift for every expectatnt mom I know.
It will help so much with the whole registering process - what to get / what not to get - to make it less overwhelming.

I also recommend Happiest Baby on the Block. This is helpful to read toward the end as it gives strategies for caring for the baby during their first months of life.

I have Your Baby Week By Week, The Happiest Baby on the Block, What To Expect... and The Super Nanny's Guide to Baby Care. I've used them all.

I really like the Happiest Baby on the Block and Healthy Sleep Habits Happy Child. They helped me so much with my extremely fussy, colicky newborn.

Baby Bargains! Im a FTM and that book helped a lot as far as narrowing down what I need to buy for baby and what brands are good.

I like Baby Bargains and the What to Expect books. However, I must say a lot of it will come naturally. And this is coming from someone who really wasn't into babies and never babysat or anything like that.

I really enjoy the Super Nanny and her take on things.

I also really like the Secrets of the Baby Whisperer (Tracy Hogg) - I really take to the English way of parenting... this and Jo Frost listed above.

The Happiest Baby on the Block

The No-Cry Sleep Solution (phenomenal)

It's a calm, contended, confident outlook on parenting. It's really nice - it approaches everything from such an upbeat, positive and level-headed outlook. I love it.

Thanks everyone for the input! I'm going to choose a couple to start off with and see how it goes.
