Inside, you'll find guidance on: Preparing mentally and emotionally for pregnancy, birth, and parenthood Supporting your body through the physical changes of pregnancy What baby items are genuinely useful to have ready, and what can wait Planning your home, nursery and sleep setup Preparing for a Baby is not an exhaustive pregnancy manual (there are plenty of those on the market!). In this approachable book, readers will find: Focused checklists and suggested timelines Anecdotes and personal reflections from the author's own pregnancies Non-judgmental guidance around feeding and birth, and how to prepare for all of it The author's own birth story, as an illustrative example of what birth may look like To support baby prep, readers are invited to download a free printable checklist, making it easy to personalize plans and move through everything at their own pace.
