When I was pregnant, I tried to get my hands on every book that would tell me what was happening to my body and why. I found the best resource to be Your Pregnancy Week by Week.

Every Sunday night, I would get in bed and pull out my book to find out what changes were going on inside. Sometimes, I cheated and read the week ahead only to be bummed out the next Sunday when there was nothing new.

To learn more about the book and its exciting new additions, read more.

But alas, the newest edition of My Pregnancy Week by Week ($16) has been updated to include 80 new topics so it will all be new next time. And for you pregolicious babes who haven't checked out the text, you're in for a treat.

A wealth of knowledge, co–authors Dr. Glade Curtis and Ms. Judith Schuler provide a weekly detailed description of baby’s developmental milestones, visual illustrations of how you and your babe are growing, the latest information about medical tests and procedures, tips on nutrition and lifestyle, and safe weekly exercises to help mother stay in shape.

The closest thing to a pregnancy "bible," every mama–to–be should have one of these to help her prepare for her lil love.
