nice breakdown of what to expect

this book was loaned to me by a friend who received it from her OB. as a new mom-to-be, i had many questions and didn't want to have to try to track down my busy OB and wait for him to return my call every time i had a question. this book was great for allaying fears, answering questions, and normalizing some really strange--and, at times, gross--experiences. my husband read it as well and found it very informative. the book includes tips for dads throughout the text, and these are nice little tidbits that often involve pampering mom or at least cutting her some slack! i also liked What to Expect When You're Expecting, Third Edition for info about what to expect each month. the weekly breakdown in this book, though, was helpful in the greater detail.

Su embrazo semana a semana

Excelente libro. Muy completo y detallado. Como primeriza me brindo la informacion que necesitaba y me aclaro mis dudas. Facil de entender.

I USE THIS EVERY PREGNANCY!

I'm pregnant with my 3rd baby now, and I still go to this to read what's going on every week. "What to Expect" is good as well, but after you read your info for the month, that's it. (The two together are a great pair.) Week-by-Week gives you something to read every week, and I know we all want to know what's going on right then!! I have fun talking to friends and family about the baby, and being able to tell them just how big he/she is each week.I believe that knowledge alleviates fear, so being told what problems could happen in pregnancy is great. I would rather be informed with what could happen than know nothing. Other books I've seen have a "when something goes wrong" chapter or something else to that effect. I would rather read about possible problems a little at a time, since most women don't have real problems with pregnancy, than getting the full blow of it all at once and then feeling overwhelmed and REALLY worried.As for other reviews I read about Dr. Curtis arbitrarily placing topics with different weeks, is it that hard to look in the index and find what you're looking for? Would any book on pregnancy be able to properly place every person's symptoms and problems exactly when they experience them?I love this book, and always recommend it to friends I hear are pregnant!

Su Embarazo: Semana a Semana

I loved this book, kept it right by my bedside for easy access and reread pertinent chapters. I felt more comfortable about my pregnancy knowing what was happening to my body and my baby. I especially enjoyed the detail in which the author described conception and the subtle changes which occur in the mother's body. With this edition, I can now share it with my Spanish speaking friends. ¡Gracias!

This Is A Must Have Book!

This is an excellent book for pregnant women to have either for a first time pregnancy or tenth pregnancy. It is loaded with reference information. Of course this is just a reference book and any problems or questions need to be directed to your own doctor. I read about everything I could find during my 1st pregnancy and this was my favorite book.I found this book a great reference book for my 1st pregnancy.I loved being able to see how our child was developing week by week, like how big she was, when she could blink her eyes, when she developed finger nails. I compared other books to this one and nothing compared. Although I did purchuse other top selling pregnancy books. This was my top choice. I am now about three weeks pregnant again with our 2nd child. I loaned this book to another family member and I can't wait to get it back!
