I bought this book as soon as I found out I was pregnant. It is full of information about how the baby is growing along with what is going on in your body. I find it very detailed and informative, and eases alot of fears. It's not a 'picture-book' if that's what your looking for. I highly recommend it. It's my fav pregnancy book.

Nonetheless, it lived at my side as I changed and learned ... Read More

This book covers vast topics, answering every question a pregnant woman has with great detail and yet not leaving you feel bogged down. Very easy to read and follow. I particularly like the tips and symptons one should look out for at every stage. You won't regret buying this book!

Mayo Clinic has been a reliable source for medical information for me over the years and it didn't stop when I became pregnant. I used their website ([...]) to look up all kinds of information in their Pregnancy Center. It was without hesitation, especially with such a high review on Amazon, that I bought this book.
I read it often in the early weeks of my pregnancy in addition to relying on their ... Read More
