Summary: Great Book
Comment: This book is great and very informative. I read it as well as "What to Expect When You're
Expecting". This book is slightly better, and also includes information not covered in other books.
I would recommend this book mostly to first time moms, since it answered alot of my questions during
my first pregnancy.

Summary: Very informative
Comment: My husband and I just started to think about planning for a family so, me, being the researcher type
wanted to know everything that is in store for us becoming parents. After reading all the reviews
for "What to expect while your expecting" I didn't want to be scared out of my wits. So in buying
this book I was happily surprised at what length the Mayo Clinic authors go to, to inform you of
what is going on inside your body and all the things you can do to prevent or calm symptoms of
pregnancy and also the warning signs and what to do when something is not "right" week by week.
When I get pregnant I'll certainly use this as my go to guide before I call the Dr. about my
concerns. A pro is the "When to call" checklist after every chapter. The book is broken down into
parts: Part 1 "Pregnancy, childbirth and your newborn" (Preparing to have a baby), Part 2 "Decision
guides for pregnancy, childbirth and parenthood", Part 3 "Pregnancy reference guide", Part 4
"Complications of pregnancy and childbirth". Overall, a good read and very easy to understand,
straightforward and every section is well organized, there is no need to skip around to find what
you are looking for. I'll recommend this book to friends, certainly.

Summary: The Only Pregnancy book you need!
Comment: I bought this book based on the reviews on Amazon. This book is very reliable and straight to the
point. Many of my questions were answered in this book and every advise in this book is the same as
what my OB would advise. I would recommend this book to any pregnant woman. If you have this book
you wont need any of the other books out there.

Summary: Great book!
Comment: This book by far was the best of the 10 books I was given as gifts...including "what to
expect...blah blah blah". would recommend this book to the families who like things straight to the
point and don't want any nonsense. it tells you exactly what to expect and does not try to scare
you into thinking things are going wrong. GREAT BOOK!! Also makes a great gift to any friends you
might have that just found out they are pregnant.

Summary: Chuck "What to Expect," this is the only one you need!
Comment: I bought this book on a whim because I thought the Mayo Clinic must know some things about
pregnancy. As soon as I opened it, I realized how much time I wasted reading little bits of "What to
Expect" every month. I love the way this book is set up: the week by week development bits are all
together. The pregnancy illnesses and complications are all together. The labor and delivery bits
are all together. The birthing complications are all together...thus you don't end up reading all
kinds of information you don't need. There is a very usable index at the back if you're searching
for an answer to a question. I look at this book constantly when I have a question about something,
and it takes me 2 minutes tops to figure out what I want to know. I thought the language was very
easy to understand without being patronising. I would recommend this book to anyone embarking on a
pregnancy - it's a very valuable resource!
