"Start now -- when the time comes, there'll be no time ;-)."

"I like Penelope Leach's books, myself."

"I constantly read up on baby care, I figure the more I know the better off I'll be."

"If you don't already have it, I would suggest the 'What to Expect When You're Expecting' book. My doctor provided me with a copy and I think it's great. But, opinions will differ, browse through it at the store if you like."

It depends on what type of information you are looking for. If you want to be informed for your own knowledge and so you can make informed choices about your pregnancy and birth then books like What to Expect When You're Expecting wont help much. Try "The Thinking Woman's Guide to a Better Birth" by Henci Goer or "Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the Newborn" by Simkin, Whalley, and Keppler. You might search for doulas in your area and ask if they have a book lending library, most do.

I have to say that hands-down, the most entertaining book on pregnancy I have read is The Girlfriend's Guide to Pregnancy by Vicky Iovine. It is very factual but keeps you laughing and it's not as intimidating as other books. For a first p/g, definitely go for that! Also, The Unofficial Guide to Pregnancy is great to have as a resource, and it answered many of my questions, but it's pretty boring. I find that the internet can be more helpful than books. My favorite site for pregnancy is pregnancy.about.com and there's also great discussion forums at justmommies.com.

what to expect when your expecting is definitely the best for info. as far as wanting to laugh instead of screaming at the father of your fetus, belly laughs by jenny mcCarthy is the best book to read.

What do you call someone who loves to read books?

Bibliophile "Bibliophile" is the common term for a person who loves reading. However a bibliophile is, most accurately, a lover of books - someone who likes books, including someone who likes to collect books. While this may coincide with a love for reading, it to me is not the same thing. I am not sure a particular "phile" word exists for a lover of reading as opposed to a lover of books. Biblio is the Greek word for "book". The Greek word for "read" is διαβαζω (diavazo), so I nominate / coin "diavazophile" to mean a lover of reading.
