Wish I had had it earlier...
I have been waiting for publication of this book and am very glad I nowhave a copy. The pages are full of helpful advice and how to care foryourself during pregnancy - I must say even reading it is a relaxingexperience!
Lovely photos, but not too many, and a logical trail through the weeks ofpregnancy, (many of which I have now passed, and wished I had owned thisbook from the beginning) As an example it is useful to know whicharomatherapy oils and beauty treatments are safe, and the book is full ofgreat ideas on pampering as well as diet and general wellbeing.
I will definitely buy this as a gift for friends who become pregnant infuture as it is a very welcome relief from some of the more 'bioligical'books one reads at this time!

THIS WAS A GOOD READ, BUT RECOME OTHER BOOKS AS WELL
I love everything about it, but I'm a student of this subject. I feel this cover something, but you need other books as well that deal other things in pregnancy. Here are the books that I read on this subject, love them, feel they can help as well.

Here are the books I read:

DK, Zita West, Midwife (I'm sure of the official of a midwife): Fertility and Conception: The Complete Guide to Getting Pregnant and Natural Pregnancy.

Bobbi Brown : Beauty Evolution: Guide to Lifetime Beauty. Offers advice for more make up tips for pregnant women, its only 2 or 4 pgs long.

DK, Johnson and Johnson, Carol Cooper, MD (Editor), Paula M Elbit, MD, Constultant: Johnsons Mother and Baby: Pregnancy, Childbirth, Child Development, Health, Birth to Age 3, and Safety and First Aid.

Sheila Kitzinger: The Complete Book of Pregnancy and Childbirth.

Naomi Wolf: Misconceptions: Truth, Lies, and the Unexpected on the Journey of Motherhood, in the US.

Martha Brockenbrough: It Could Happen to You: Diary of Pregnancy and Beyond (the birth of her first child and her first year).

Here is the book I'm reading now and will review it afterwards.

Daphne de Marneffe, Phd: Maternal Desire: On Children, Love, and the Inner Life.

Here is the book I'm going to read after the book of currently reading and will review it afterwards.

Sarah Blaffer-Hrdy: Mother Nature: Maternal Instincts and How They Shape the Human Species.

Thank you.
