Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth about Pregnancy and Childbirth by Jenny McCarthy (Paperback) ISBN: 0738210072 
Any woman who has ever felt insecure about her appearance or the physical nature of pregnancy should read this book. Reading about Jenny's surrender to granny panties or actually having nothing that fits but a muumuu will make you laugh and realize that what you are going through is normal.
This book will not tell you how to deal with your pregnancy aside from a few tips but it will help you remember that you are not alone. This is one of the funniest books I have read in years.

The Best Friends' Guide to Pregnancy by Vicky Iovine ISBN: 0747533253 
A humorous read that feels like sitting down for a chat with a friend - although a friend who assumes your pregnancy and birth will go a certain way without you having much choice in the matter! Great fun, but little perspective on what you can do to be an active participant in your own pregnancy & birth or to make choices that can change your experience.

The Expectant Father: Facts, Tips and Advice for Dads-to-Be, Second Edition by Armin A. Brott ISBN: 0789205386 
ISBN: 0789205378 (Hardcover) - ISBN: 0789209675 (Audio CD)
The author has the idea that the sooner dads get involved in being parents the better they'll be and that the best time to get involved is during pregnancy.
It is a well-written, month-by-month explanation of what is going on both emotionally and physically with the mother, the baby, and you the father. At 250 pages plus references, it is packed with information while still being portable. It doesn't necessarily go into a great amount of detail on each subject, but it mentions most important things at least in passing, and you can always refer to the Internet or What to Expect... (which your partner will undoubtedly have on her nightstand) for more details.

Ina May's Guide to Childbirth by Ina May Gaskin (Paperback) ISBN: 0553381156 
- ISBN: B000S1LT1A (Kindle Edition)
This is an excellent resource for pregnant women who are interested in exploring their options about pursuing a natural childbirth. It tells birth stories from the mother's perspective and the midwife's perspective, and also has a lot of other useful information about pregnancy/labor/birth. Highly recommended.
Ultimately the reality is that every mother's experience is different, and there's no one technique, approach, solution that works for everyone. That said, the book did a pretty good job of convincing me that the mother's mental approach to childbirth & expectations for the experience, are the single most important indicator of how it will all go.
