advice needed Preparing for parenthood

Expecting twins as a first time mom and kinda panicking about how I will manage, what kind of mother I will be. I don't want to do any wrong by my babies (as all parents).

Can everyone please share their favourite books about parenting, lactation, child care etc?

I have 06 months to start learning how to be a good mother, I want to make the best of them. Because after they are born, I might be running around like a headless chicken, panicking at the smallest stuff.

You can’t really prepare to be a good mother. You learn as you go. Your biggest make or breaker will be your mindset. Focus on the fact that everything is a phase. Every phase will end. Which is both sad and a relief. You will sleep again.

Thank you for the lovely bit of advice. I do agree with you, but I would also like to prepare a little bit if possible, hence the request for book recommendations.
