Customer Reviews

Covers all areas

I like this book a lot when I was pregnant. So much information it was sometimes overwhelming but I still grab it if I'm wondering this or that about how our bodies work! I bought it for my sister and she loves it too!

Great Pregnancy book!

This preganancy book is fantastic! Not scary and overwhelming (like "What To Expect"), but a great, realistic presentation of facts & fun tips without being too scary... especially for a first time Mommy-to-be. The photos in this book are simply amazing as well. I send this book to all my friends who are expecting for the first time. Great book!

Wish I Had Seen This Book 6 Months Ago!

What an excellent book. It is all-encompassing, and not only takes you through pregnancy in a non-biased way (giving you a broad perspective with a ob-gyn to a midwife) it gives you a look through and after child birth. The information is accurate, complete, helpful, and easy to digest. It puts all of the other pregnancy books to shame. I bought the old stand-by "What to Expect When You're Expecting" when I first found out I was pregnant and think it will work well for starting a fire in my fire pit now that I've found "I'm Pregnant!".

Love this book!

I bought this book and the Your Pregnancy Week by Week, and although I use both of them, this one is my favorite. I think the colorful photographs and illustrations are so informative and don't see these in many PG books. I love the tone of the author, she is informative and also empathetic (she gave birth to twins). I agree with one of the other reviews that some of the other PG books are too simplistic, they tell you what will happen, but not necessarily why. I like the detail that this book gives about everything. Highly recommend it!

A Physician's View

As a Maternal-Fetal Medicine Specialist and a Geneticist I feel this is one of the best pregnancy guide books on the market. When my sister got pregnant I looked for a book that not only would answer her day to day questions about what was happening with her pregnancy, but would also address the what ifs about potential pregnancy complications. I found most of the books on the market to be too simple for a college educated, medically savy patient. In addition to containing up to date information about screening and diagnostic tests it has great pictures and is easy to read. I've since recommended the book to several of my patients. The only downfall (if you can call it that) is that the author is British so there pieces of the book that more accurately reflect the routines of prenatal care in the UK.
