The mother of two, who has read 100+ educational books, answered this question with personal experience.
Here's a list of books to follow!
Although I've read a lot of parenting books, but not every book is worth recommending, this answer to share with you, pregnancy in the end to read which books will be more useful, more solve the problems of pregnant mothers . (
This article is based on the chronological order of pregnancy, and is presented in 7 categories.
I remember when I first got pregnant, I didn't know anything, I panicked when I encountered a little problem, and the internet query was not clear, so I found a few second-hand books to find out what other people's pregnancy life is like, and after reading them, I did get a lot of sobriety.
At present, it has changed hands, although this kind of book is helpful to us, but after reading it once, the possibility of repeated reading is relatively small, so it is recommended that pregnant mothers can find some second-hand books or directly read the e-book.
This kind of books can solve the problems and doubts of pregnant mothers during pregnancy, such as changes in the body during pregnancy, the choice of mode of delivery, how to protect the safety of the uterus, how to protect themselves and their children in the working world, and so on.
This is a good time to take a look at The Sears Pregnancy Encyclopedia, which has a lot of useful information for pregnant moms, and the language is very loving and warming to them. I've given this book away and don't have a physical picture.
Another thing that needs attention during pregnancy is breastfeeding.
The moment the baby is born, the body's hormones start to change, and the mom-to-be is faced with breastfeeding problems. 80% of new moms experience problems like not enough milk or clogged mammary glands, and most of these are due to not having the knowledge about breastfeeding ahead of time.
I was a victim of this, and the pain in my breasts after a blocked mammary gland was more painful than giving birth to a child, and the pain was so excruciating that I hated myself for not learning about it ahead of time.
Here we recommend Sears Breastmilk Encyclopedia , although I did not buy it, but I read the Sears Pregnancy Encyclopedia during my pregnancy is very good, after reading the introduction of the Sears Breastmilk Encyclopedia, I think I can recommend.
The book details breastfeeding tips, breastfeeding tips for working moms, support needed for breastfeeding, and other things about breastfeeding, so I'm sure it will be clear to everyone after reading it.
Speaking of postpartum recovery, we have to mention the pelvic repair, abdominal rectus muscle separation repair and other types of projects in the hospital, each of which is expensive, as a new mother is really difficult to distinguish which is really need to do, which is the IQ tax.
If the recovery is not good, it will cause irreversible damage to your body.
For example, a sneeze leaks urine, the belly belly can not be reduced, the lack of qi and blood even in the summer does not feel hot, so moms must love themselves, after all, the body is their own, no one can replace it.
So you want to understand the postpartum recovery, you can read "postpartum body revolution", this book teaches us to self-check the correct position of the rectus abdominis muscle, the pelvis, etc., to give birth and cesarean section postpartum mothers to provide the body recovery training program, I'm now after the second child is also in the gradual recovery training.
(Of course, if the postpartum body injury is more serious, you still need to go to the hospital).
The baby, don't look at him only so small a person, but the ability to create problems is not low, like what diaper rash, sleep at night has been crying, the child put on the waking up, daytime sleep at night do not sleep ah, randomly carry out a one can be the mother of the tossing and turning of the head.
This is where Chinese Parenting Encyclopedia comes in. It's a parenting tool that you can check out when you have a problem, and it's helped me a lot over the years to be less anxious about my kids.
With 507 pages, this book is thick and full of knowledge. It's a customized guide to parenting for Chinese, and a great gift for new parents.
When your child is a year old or older, it focuses more on solving your child's problems and life planning, such as:
What if your child doesn't eat?
What if they won't brush their teeth?
What about crying in the street for a toy?
What type of tuition classes to attend?
What skills should be developed?
......
Here I recommend "There is no such thing as a disobedient child, only a parent who does not know how to teach" and "A Book of the Future for Parents", both of which I have written reviews of. I've written reviews of both books, so if you want to know more about them, check out the links at the end of this post.
There are no disobedient children, only parents who can't teach.
Here I would like to suggest to all pregnant mothers that they must control their weight and pay attention to their diet during pregnancy!
I think when the first child because I do not understand, eat some of the food is not suitable for their own body, resulting in my weight soared, the child is overweight, the production is difficult, the child was born his physique is also affected by some.
And these blood and tears lessons, is in the child slowly growing, I continue to summarize the discovery, but it is too late ah, so I hope that all the beautiful mothers do not step on the pit again.
Here we recommend Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents 2016 , a book by the Chinese Nutrition Association, recommended by the pediatrician, who suggests that we follow the recommendations of the book, and pay more attention to the child's diet and focus on supplementing the required nutrients in the daily diet.
The book gives guidance on nutrition for pregnant women, pregnant women, breastfeeding, and children of different ages, making it a must-have dietary guide for moms.
If you want to eat healthy, but not fat recipe menu, you can look at Fan Zhihong maternal diet nutrition book , which contains nutritional considerations during pregnancy, as well as 120 recipes in colorful graphic detail, for pregnant mothers is very useful. I've read Ms. Fan Zhihong's e-book, and she is very knowledgeable about nutrition and loves to share her knowledge about diet and nutrition in her daily life.
After your child is 6 months old, you can add complementary foods. This is another challenge for new moms, especially after reading about other people's fancy supplements, but in fact, supplemental feeding for kids is far less complicated, just because they don't understand it, that's why they find it difficult.
This time, take a look at "Supplementary food what to eat every week", which not only solves the new mother on the supplemental food of various problems, but also according to the child's age, gives a weekly, daily recipes. When you don't know what to do, just follow the menu in the book.
Interested expectant mothers can also practice in advance during pregnancy, after all, when the child is really busy.
In addition to these practical books, there are also some "less useful" books.
I have a series of read-aloud books at home, which are beautiful, moving, inspirational, and heartwarming reads from famous authors and different series.
Willing to Grow Up Slowly , is read aloud to children.
Life is a long way and there are many things you want to say, so walk slowly and speak shallowly.
Life is Slow, read aloud to yourself.
Walking alone, not forgetting the beginning, learning to talk to yourself, regaining the former slow years.
"Growing Old with You", read aloud to your lover.
The sky meets the earth, with an endless horizon, and I meet you, with the expectation of life and death.
Let the companionship be long, is read to the elders.
In the first half of my life, you grew up with me, and in the second half of my life, I grew old with you.
Read some beautiful articles can cultivate sentiment, let yourself happy, so that the child in the stomach can also feel the mother's happy.
And famous articles like this. It is very suitable for collection, and when the child grows up the same can be read.
These are my answers to the books worth recommending to read during pregnancy, I hope it will be helpful to all the beautiful mothers.
