Recommended OB/GYN/NEWBORN Nursing READING LIST!

Saw this on the NEONATAL/NICU Area and I believe it's a GREAT idea. WHO knows better the best reading materials, books, sites to use to enhance our knowledge of Inpatient OB/GYN nursing than midwives and OB-GYN and newborn nurses??? I thought we could do the same and make this a "sticky" thread and help others looking for ideas/help regarding what the best and most useful materials are to enhance our practice. Also would be looking for books to entertain us in our speciality. What say you?

Here are some of my favorites:

Spiritual Midwifery by Ina May Gaskin

Pocket Guide to Fetal Monitoring and Assessment by Susan Martin Tucker

The Labor Progress Handbook by Penny Simkin

Core Curriculum for Maternal-Newborn Nursing by Susan Mattson and Judy E. Smith

Diary of a Midwife: The Power of Positive Childbearing by Juliana van Olphen-Fehr

Unspeakable Losses: Healing from Miscarriage, Abortion and other Fetal Loss by Kim Klueger-Bell (great for nurses too).

A Child is Born by Lennart Nilsson

Any of the many Labor/delivery/Perinatal nursing books published, produced by AWHONN, such as Periantal Nursing

Varney's Midwifery by Helen Varney (no not a midwife, but the info here is invaluable to an OB nurse as well).

The Breastfeeding Answerbook by LaLecheLeague International

Labor and Delivery in my Pocket ( www.inmypocketbooks.com )

Finally. a WONDERFUL resource/website to get a HUGE selection of books and teaching materials relating to Childbirth, Midwifery, Lactation, Parenting, Newborn/Childcare:

www.1cascade.com

I have bought many different books from this company, at reasonable prices and the service is OUTSTANDING. You can request a catalogue online and receive it within about 2-3 days.

So what are some of YOUR favorites??????

and, is anyone interested in making this a "sticky" thread like in the NICU Area?
