Hi there lovelies,
Welcome along to my first proper "Mum To Be Monday”. This
week I want to take a look at a really great free book that's been published by
BabyShop here in Dubai.

| (Babyshop Mom's Little Secret) |
This book is available for
free in store or you can download it. In our household we already have
two copies one for me and one for the husband! Yep, this books not only gonna
be helpful for you mum to be/mummy but it will also be very useful for daddy
too.
The first thing that I really like about this book is the fact
that it's nice and compact so it’s very easy to carry around with you in the handbag, and perfect if you
need something to read whilst you're at the hairdressers!
I also like that Mom's Little Secret is an easy read. It's not a
HUGE book with lots and lots of pages therefore you feel like you can tackle it
and the information is presented well therefore it is very easy to find out everything
that you need to know very quickly. This book is perfect for someone who's just found out
that they are expecting or for a new mum who's looking to learn more.
I found this book to be like a helping hand and a reassuring
hug. When I first found out I was expecting our little one I was very
overwhelmed and straight away headed online and downloaded a lot of books.
These books have been so useful from telling me how my pregnancy should be
going, through to what I can expect when baby is actually here. I
so wish that Mom's Little Secret had been around when I was in my first
trimester as I know that I would have found all the prenatal information really
useful. To be honest there's still plenty in the prenatal that I'm reading
right now though!
Here's a few of the articles that I've found really interesting and useful so far...

When you find out your wife is pregnant prepare to become
the first port-of-call for when she has a question or a disconcerting moment in
her pregnancy. Whether it’s a strange ache, a question about which foods to
avoid or the more serious issue of which colour pram to buy, you are expected
to be the guy with all the answers and why shouldn’t you be? You are supposed
to be the provider and protector, it’s your job. Mom’s Little Secret will
quickly become your go to guide for all things baby and will certainly ease
your mind when it comes to what to expect.
Whether it’s the shopping checklist that helps you on your
way around the store, to recognising pregnancy milestones and guiding you
through the minefield of the various birthing methods available, this book is
invaluable. Every Father is different and has a unique relationship with their
child, I intend to be incredibly hands-on, and the section on being a ‘21st
Century Dad’ focuses on Dads who have taken an active role in their child’s
development and upbringing, is really well put together. If you intend to be
hands-on as opposed to taking a back seat then these professional pointers will
help define your role in the parenting team.
It has really helped me better understand what Clare is
going through in this pre-natal chapter of her pregnancy and I’ve already
started working my way through the post-natal chapter, too. Being an expat can
sometimes mean that you’re away from your family, the very people you turn to
when times get tough with baby, but this book is on hand with all the tips and
advice you rely on your own Mom for. I can’t recommend it enough and will be
keeping my copy close by for the next time I need a helping hand.
Chris & I also decided to have a chat about Mom's Little Secret and explain more about the book.. Have a little watch by clicking below...
