I feel like I'm in the middle of college finals right now.
Now that we're less than 2-weeks(at least) out from having a baby I'm starting to freak out and read every last thing I can get my hands on that will help me know how to feed Shelby, help her sleep and everything else in between.
I know books aren't going to tell me everything but there are tidbits here and there that I am getting and it's making my anxiety a little bit better!!!
One is the ever-popular BabyWise book - which I literally have been been CRAMMING with. Skipping some sections and reading others.
Any advice you gals have on that book are greatly appreciated!!
It's OVERWHELMING!!!
The other book is Secrets of the Mommyhood.
This book is a little less, okay A LOT, less intimidating approach to preparing for 'mommyhood'.
It's written by a 30-something mother, who happens to be IRL friends with my blog bestie, I Do Declare.
Heather Alexander's approach to all things pregnancy and baby are downright awesome!!
Not being a HUGE reader this book is more of an outline and high level look at what you need to know.
In short -- it's simple and easy to read for people with short attention spans like me!!
Since reading I've already repacked parts of my hospital bag, put Ultimate Crib Sheets on my 'to buy' list along with scented trash bags for poopy diapers while on road trips, and much more.
Not going to lie, I was dreading reading another mommy/baby book but this one is actually refreshing and makes me feel like I'm going to be A-OKAY!!!!
So, if you're just starting the pregnancy journey or nearing the end, pick up up this book which is low in cost and easy to read!
And, let's hope my next post is about having a baby and not about preparing for one!!
5-days and counting until Shelby's due date!!!
