Ah yes Novi, those three books are priceless, i have all of them. The authors are Arlene Eisenberg, Heidi Murkoff and Sandee Hathaway.

Also the below website Babycentre is similar to these books, just register(free) with the birthdate of your baby and they will send you monthly updates on what to do with your baby , milestones etc,

satria ... there is a complete book set that i would recommend to you and your wife.

1. What to expect when you are expecting

2. What to expect in the first year

3. What to expect in the toddler years

Cant remember the author but this set are very wellknown amongs mum ... obviously you can skip book number 1.

babies love to hear the sounds, especially mummies voice, sing lots of nursery rythmes to your baby or read books to your baby,they may not understand the context but will love hearing your voice. I would avoid TV programs, especially at an age when you can control TV viewing. Also you can play nursery rytme songs on a cd player softly.

As for toys colourful mobile toys for the crib are good, just be sure to take them away when your baby is able to lift themselves up and grab them to avoid dangers.
