[quote=Anonymous]Dear OP, you are doing what most moms do, obsess about how to take care of your baby. We all did it, but your dh's way is actually healthier and better. He will not be as high strung and insane when the baby comes. Why? Because he will take care of the baby using common sense. You will be dead tired bcs you will try to do what some book told you, and you will follow a book rather than your own and your baby's cues and your instinct.
Throw all the books away; you don't need them. They are there to make a profit for people, not to teach you anything. Ask your mom or grandma, they will give you the best advice. They will also tell you that they read books, and then went nuts trying to follow some advice, until they threw the books away and did what made sense.
Your DH is excited about the baby, he is not excited about the book! You've gone crazy, a bit, even before the baby is here. You will go a bit crazier once the baby arrives.

Even though I wrote this to you, you will not take my advice. You will keep reading and having some Dr. Seuss tell you how to take care of your baby. None of this matters or makes any difference. You will know how to take care of your baby unless you are totally nuts, which you clearly are not. In a year you will remember this when you have gone to hell and back trying to feed your kids based on some book when you sleep train your kid based on some method when you were freaking out that baby didn't crawl at 9 months. You will throw away the insane books and advice, and realize that you just let money-grabbing authors dictate and ruin your life. Your DH already knows all this because he is not a mom.
