Customer Reviews

A good resource Guide

I haven't had my baby yet but I've got lots of time on my hands to read so I picked up this book - and I found it to be very encouraging and informative. I recommend reading it while you are pregnant so you know what to expect. As to the other reviews, quite frankly I don't "get" why people keep recommending 'What To Expect When You're Expecting". I found it to be very poorly written - plus a recent article in the New York Times called it outdated, incorrect and said that most doctors don't recommend it or approve of it. At least Bouncing Back speaks to pregnant women as if we have a brain - which is more than I can say for "What To Expect!" ! Buy Bouncing Back - it's not new, but you'll like it!

Fundamental information, but useful

This book concisely covers the basics of recovering from childbirth. Chapters include information on everything from taking care of yourself following the birth of your child to nutrition and exercise. This was one of several I kept on hand to reference.
