HarperCollins Mayo Clinic Guide to a Healthy Pregnancy

Más que un libro para leerse completo, me parece que es excelente para consultar algunos temas en específico.

A brilliant book which any pregnant women will love from the first day up to the delivery time, step by step discussions like tips, remedy etc, a must have..

My wife and I bought several books for our first pregnancy, and this ended up being used the most, alongside  this one . This book uses an easy to follow format that explains in great detail exactly what is going on inside your body at different stages of your pregnancy. It continues to tell you how you might expect to feel, and most importantly, WHY things are happening the way they are. It was incredibly fun for my wife and I to look at the different stages of pregnancy and comment on how our babies ears (for example) are growing this week, or that she is the size of a grapefruit. At the end of the day, the information somehow relieves many anxieties you make be facing, and you walk away having learned something. I can't forget to mention the excellent diagrams and illustrations, either.The best thing about this book is that it is very scientific. In this day and age of anti-vaxxers and such, you have to be careful what information you decided to follow. Rest assured that this book, from cover to cover, is written by doctors and only includes published, peer-reviewed information with plenty of references to follow up with if you are so inclined.If you can get only one book to help you through your pregnancy, get this one and rest assured that you are not missing out on anything! this one

This book is full of information and answers to questions we had during our pregnancy. I researched a number of pregnancy self-help books and selected this one due to the authors and publisher. The information here comes from doctors and is not subjective.As English speakers with limited Japanese giving birth in Japan, this book was an immense source of information and comfort for us.

Both my husband and I have been referring to this book and have found it extremely helpful. We can keep track of baby's growth as well as understand what symptoms I am having or should expect. There's also a big section on what happens after baby which I've found helpful to understand what to expect. I like the tone of voice of the book as well, informative and straightforward.
