Books Worth Reading – For the Mom(-To-Be)

January 17, 2020
-
Posted by Lauren Rodych-Eberle

Even years before I was pregnant, I was reading reading reading, about kids, about childbirth, about babies…so hopefully my reading can take some of the not-as-good (in my opinion) reads out of the mix for you. I’ve always read about these topics out of interest, but also for my teaching of kids of all ages, so I tossed in a couple books that extend to anyone working with, or being around, children. Here are some of my favourites when it comes to pregnancy, sleep habits, and talking to kids!

Expecting Better by Emily Oster

Emily Oster takes all the “rules” of pregnancy, such as what foods to avoid and what testing to do at the doctors, and then explains why these are rules, so that you can make the best decisions for yourself. It helps to weigh all the pros and cons of the decisions you make! This book is also good for all “rebels” that need more answers to the do’s and don’ts of pregnancy.

The Mama Natural Week-By-Week Guide to Pregnancy & Childbirth by Genevieve Howland

This book is right up my alley with it’s natural ways. Howland gives you insight into what natural alternatives can do for you and your baby, and how they can help you enjoy both your 40-some weeks growing your baby and then birthing that little one! It is very natural, so be warned if you feel like it could be too much for you.

HypnoBirthing by Marie F. Mongan

This guide has helped many women I know have a natural child birth. It is very “hippy,” for lack of a better word, but the meditative aspect is wonderful, and the different speeches and practices are great to pick and choose from.

How to Talk So Little Kids Will Listen by Joanna Faber & Julie King

This book will help make parenting more fun, as your learn to listen to your kids and talk in a way they understand – limiting the arguing and getting through to your toddlers! This book, along with How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk, I found to be very helpful in my teaching, so this does not need to be limited to parents alone. There’s more parenting specific books that I want to share, so stay tuned for that future post!

Happy Reading, Mamas!!

I’m Lauren and I have a deep passion for music, food, the outdoors, and travel.

I am the owner of Miss Lauren’s Music Studio, where I teach voice, piano, ukulele, and preschool music classes – via Skype and within Calgary. I am a Senior Consultant for Pampered Chef, which has inspired me over the years to write two cookbooks (plus one mini ebook cookbook), that have food preparation made easy in the forefront.

Let’s do another “Just you wait...” positive Let’s do another “Just you wait...” positive version!
.
I did this when Collins was just a newborn and so many of your answers brought me to tears! After lots of @karinpedersen’s shares lately and your beautiful messages, I love seeing how much joy and ease you find in motherhood. All the disclaimers that everyone’s experience is different, and there is always the challenges, but let’s let go of all of that for this comment session, and share the good stuff!!
.
So many of you said before, “Just you wait until she...” “says mama for the first time.” “gives you a hug.” “walks to you.” And you all were right! Feel free to share your own “just you wait(s)” from your own experiences too! I can’t wait to read, and likely cry!❤️❤️❤️
