5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books on pregnancy. , 1 Nov 2008
This pregnancy book is thorough and so easy to understand, it puts others down. (I've read many.) What I liked most was that it wasn't as judgemental as others I've read and really took a more laid back approach. Pregancy is anxiety-inducing enough already! So, if you want a good book on pregnancy, get this one. Another one I liked which is more laid back and funnier is You Know You're Pregnant When. Reflections on the Longest Nine Months of My Life. Both together is a good week's read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A true baby bible, 20 Jun 2008
By Helen S. Lewis (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is fantastic. It is aimed at both parents and guides you through the entire process of having a baby from before conception right through all the stages of pregnancy and finally after the baby is born. This book explains the biological stuff, the legal stuff and goes into depth about what feelings the expectant mother and father will be experiencing. There is a lot of information in this book, and not all of it will be relevant to everyone, for example, it explains a wide variety of complications that may occur, infertility treatments and miscarriages, and also the different types of birth you might have. I highly recommend this inciteful book to anyone trying to get pregnant, or who already is pregnant, and to some extent those who have recently given birth. Quality book, and a true baby bible!!

4.0 out of 5 stars A good overall coverage of preganancy and beyond, 4 Feb 2009
This book gives a good overview of conception, pregnancy and child care. I bought it when I was trying to concieve and its given me lots of useful information. I am now in my first trimester. Very good use of pictures and examples throughout. It can be a bit general and off track in places. The sections targeted at fathers to be can be a bit obvious and occassionally insulting if the father is already quite interested.
I would recommend this as a first starter book and a great reference guide.
