I love and heartily recommend these products below created by other people to create a life of love, liberty, robust health, posterity, and the pursuit of happiness.

For general knowledge about liberty, to read and share with your family:

The Tuttle Twins books, shop here.

For a Happy Marriage:

This is the best book on why marriage matters:

Dave Ramsey’s books provide the best guidance for a firm financial foundation for marriage.

Wife for Life by Ramona Zabriskie is the best guide for understanding men and how to stay in love with a non-abusive husband. Covenants Hearts gives you the “why” for marriage, and Wife for Life gives you the nuts-and-bolts “how.”

For Being a Wise Steward of Your Fertility:

Take Charge of Your Fertility

For consecrating your fertility to God, see Family Unplanning.

 

 

 

 

For understanding how breastfeeding plays a role in fertility:

I also like Sheila Kippley’s book specifically for Catholic moms, even though I’m not Catholic. She outlines such a beautiful plan for consecrating your fertility, womanhood, wifehood, your breastfeeding and your baby to God.

For Happy Cooking, Eating, and Robust Bodies:

The above cookbook is the Bible of traditional, whole food, real food cooking. Use it to feel completely nourished. It is a bit unwieldy to peruse while breastfeeding however, or to keep cracked open on the counter. Some of the recipes are also a bit complicated.

Use the following cookbooks to find recipes that are are also real food but more mama-friendly in their ease of preparation. By studying the principles of how macronutrients fuel us in these books, you will be able to fix food that you, your husband, and kids love to eat without creating insulin resistance as you age. You will be able to gain weight without it being overwhelming during pregnancy and then be able to slim down wisely postpartum.
