Lea,
Most people who have children the biological way don't
have much if any experience with parenting or child
care. In the hospital, a mother gets a little help
about how to diaper and breast feed, but that's it.
Calling on family members or friends and, as you say,
reading books helps, but the latter has to be taken
with a dose of your own judgment and feelings.
There are quite a few blind parents on this list who I
am sure will be offereing you help.
Good luck to you both.
Cindy
