You may purchase these at http://www.amazon.com. You may also be able to find them at your library.
We often forget about the library, but it is a great community resource and the books are free. You will soon learn that the baby will suck up all of your available money. So, save your dollars while you can! The library may also have programs like prenatal yoga to help you interact with other expecting moms. Building a sense of community can be very reassuring.
