depending on what kind of parenting books u are looking for.

I used to buy quite a number and realised that I got no space in my cuopboard anymore plus there are numerous out there.

Visit the library and you will be spoilt for choice.

A few titles that I like:
1. How you behave your preschooler will too (something like that)
2. No-Cry sleep solution
3. Supernanny Jo Frost

The Happiest Baby on the Block - Harvey Karp
The Baby Book - William Sears
So That's What They're For! - Janet Tamaro (a breastfeeding book)
Adventures in Tandem Nursing - Hillary Flower (a breastfeeding book)

Does it really help after reading?

 

[jopeck]

if you implement what you learn, then yes... if you don't... then don't bother to read in the first place.

I know the Harvey Karp book really helped us cope with a colicky 2nd baby. The Sears book was a lifesaver many times during the 1st year with our #1. I've read the 3rd and 4th book many times looking for encouragement and answers. I'd recommend those four books highly.

its help by reading
sometime i do photocopy sm useful informations

but beside that i learn from mistakes & experience

 

[jedamum]

i also read in the library or borrow home, cos i usually only read those useful sections that i am interested in.
yes..if you practise what you read, it can be pretty effective.

i am more into books relating to 'how to raise a confident child', 'how to broach difficult topics', etc etc

I think the books we'll recommend will change over time as our children grow older. The ones on my list are really for 2 years and below. I'm finding new 'must haves' as I learn to cope with school going kids and toddlers with minds of their own!
