Dianne-TX Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I need good book suggestions about welcoming a new baby. I would prefer a book that is geared towards the Lord and the blessing of a new baby. I would also like one that is geared towards kids welcoming a new brother or sister. Thanks!

mominbc Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I liked the 2 books put out by Dr.Sears and his wife Martha called "What Baby Needs" and "Baby on the Way" , they are childrens books written to prepare siblings for a new baby. That's all I know of though.:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjcmehl Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 :iagree:I own the two Sears' books and have them in my doula library for client check-out. When I was pregnant my children loved listening and reading from them! If you are having a homebirth (or for natural birthers) there is another book I would recommend, entitled "Welcome With Love" by Jenni Overend...fabulous!:D It is not available on Amazon, well it is...it is just too overpriced...look elsewhere. It is originally from Australia! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjcmehl Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Oh, regarding the Sear's books...he is Christian, and he gives some wonderful recommendations on the inside covers, as well as within the book for welcoming baby. Consider maybe a Blessing God's Way (if you have heard of a Blessingway...it is similar to that, however, focusing on the Lord) http://www.blessinggodsway.com/index.html She has some book recommendations, I don't see any specifically to children, though; but I think you will get some fabulous ideas just viewing her website.

Alice Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 For very little kids these picture books are sweet God Gave Us Two by Lisa Tawn Bergren You're All My Favorites by Sam McBratney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
