The book, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, by Jordan B. Peterson gives us the valuable insights into the forces we know as Order and Chaos. Order represents structure, knowledge, and certainty, while Chaos stands for possibilities, the unknown and sometimes anarchy. One cannot exist without the other and we are the ones who must try to make sense of both in life.

It’s completely natural for first-time mothers to feel overwhelmed and scared when expecting. Although the majority of women experience the beauties of pregnancy and childbirth, it doesn’t mean it gets any less daunting when the next one arrives. The main reason why women stress so much about their pregnancies though, is because of their lack of knowledge concerning the baby itself.

Have you ever thought about having a baby? Do you want to learn more about the pregnancy process? Are you not quite sure if you are ready to bring a child into the world?

This can be a very scary time, and then the actual labor brings about its own set of fears. Not to worry, though, this audiobook is here to help.

Listen to this book cover to cover.
I've listened the whole book cover to cover while I was pregnant, to familiarize myself with what's coming, and then after the baby was born, at the end of each month I listen the chapter on the upcoming month, to refresh my memory of what's immediately forthcoming.
