Making the cut: choosing 40 great pregnancy books

Each book listed here has been painstakingly reviewed according to three different criteria: 1) the books current reputation on the market, 2) the value of the information being provided to new and expectant parents, and 3) it's overall readability.

Some of the books are old standards (but newer editions) and some of the books were published last year and touch on topics in new ways that we believe are relevant to modern parents.

If you disagree with our selection or believe that there is a better book out there on pregnancy, please feel free to contact us at:

We welcome all comments, criticism, and advice. We'd like this to be the best top 40 listing for pregnant and new parents EVER.
