Very worried and clueless first time mum!

Hey! I'm still only about 8 weeks pregnant with our very unplanned baby (I have been on contraceptives for 10 years but suddenly decided to fail!).

After much thought, we are going ahead with this but I am very nervous and know virtually nothing about pregnancy or babies. Apart from my neice who is now 11, there are no children in my family and not many of my friends have kids. My partner has a lot more experience than me as he has a large family with a lot of children and he has a lot of friends with kids. But I, myself am very nervous and clueless. I love doing research but there are so many different websites that can contradict each other.

So does anyone know any good and useful books to help guide me through the confusing world of first time parenthood?
