    This book is excellent if you want to scare the crap out of yourself while being pregnant! It's scary facts that can be very true! The great factor about this book is that is goes into great length and detail for each and every month. The book definately does not lie to you! You definately know what to expect when your expecting! The author has excellent views and perception with each month and I found it very informative where I found the answer to almost anything I was looking for.

    it is free with a good ob so do not buy this from anyone. someone trying to sell this for a profit is a joke. any good ob is going to give you a copy to prepare you for birth and having a baby beyond.

    I think this book is excellent, not only for the mother, but; also for the father. It provides insight into what is going on with the mother and allows the father a better idea of what he is expected to do.

      The book of books
    Review created: 09/06/08

    My doctor's office and my friends all said this was the book to get. The first few months of pregnancy are so important, yet I wouldn't see the actual doctor for over 2 months! That was scary! But the book gave me all the need to know info. What is normal about your changing body. The list of what to eat and what to stay away from. Great to know info to kick off a healthy pregnancy.
