I decided to buy this because my cousin recommended it. It is one of the few good books out there on pregnancy. My husband and I are reading through this book together. It is nice because it is divided up into each week of pregnancy. There are pictures each week of the baby's size; however, the pictures that they say are actual size are not actual size (but that's okay, I can measure). They mention many important topics such as eating right, exercising, tests throughout pregnancy, complications that may arise, the baby's growth, and changes in the woman. They don't go into great detail about some things, but they understand that most pregnant women will not experience these complications. It is easy to read, and as a nurse I believe has valid information. I would recommend it to a friend.Read full review
I bought a copy of this book for my daughter when she was expecting her first child last year. When two ladies I worked with both became pregnant, I passed on my daughter's copy and bought another for my other friend. This book gives easy to read information in a week-by-week format. It shows how the baby is growing and what changes are taking place. What I like is that it is not all about heading for that epidaural...it gives information on alternatives to run of the mill births, and also talks about nutritional and emotional needs. Great book! It arrived in a timely manner, in great condition. Thank you
I borrowed my sister's copy of this book for my first two pregnancies, and finally I bought my own! The thing I love about this book is you see just how your baby is developing each week. I also love the pictures of what your baby looks like each week. My three year old is fascinated with the development of our baby. Each week, we sit down and see what is happening with our baby. She often asks if she can look at it again. Definitely recommend it!
This book was easy to read, easy to follow, and overall incredibly informative in a positive way. Unlike other pregnancy books that can be intimidatnig with medical advice and all of the scary "what ifs", this book told me what I needed to know in a comfortable manner. My husband even enjoyed reading it b/c it was realistic and entertaining. I read mine each week and couldn't wait until I turned another week pregnant to read on and learn about my week and what I could expect. It's the only book you need. For guys, I recommend the brother book of this, Pregnancy for the father to be. It is a great compliment for the father and aligns well in a practical way. My husband read through it and enjoyed it.
I used this book with my first pregnancy but loaned out my copy. A few years later, I am pregnant again and wanted to have the book for reference. Very informative and full of little bits of information that you might not find in other places or even think to ask. Your Baby's First Year Weed by Week is another must.
