Book Review: Who decided this was the ultimate pregnancy guide?
Summary: 1 Stars
And where are they so I can smack them?
This book is a piece of garbage that is organized in a horrible fashion, has lots of fluff information, is preachy and condescending, and even SCARY at times. DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK.
Apparently everyone at baby showers, all your friends and relatives (who haven't been pregnant recently), and everyone you pass on the street THINKS you need to have this book. But that means they clearly haven't had to use it! Warn your friends and family not to waste their money!
A catchy title does not a helpful book make!
If you are so unfortunate as to receive a copy of this book for free, DISCARD IT IMMEDIATELY without reading. You will feel worse about yourself and the pregnancy for having cracked it open.
Book Review: Not sure why everyone gets this book
Summary: 2 Stars
I am really not sure why this is such a popular book. All it did was scare me. They do have some great infomation, but I found that many of our questions were unanswered. Also, a bunch of the sections refer readers to the authors' other books rather than giving a good answer in the book I already owned - the book should be more self contained, not an ad for the authors' other works. I pretty much stopped reading this book by my fifth month after a friend gave me her pregnancy book. I found it much less scary, more complete and better organized.Book Review: Good book for First time moms
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this book even before i got the postive pregnancy test. My only complaint is that some of the questions women ask are so dumb, but i guess at some point someone will think of it and this book will answer them. Other problem is that some questions aren't always going to apply to your type of situation and the questions may startle you, i know some made me a little uncomfortable. Thats just me though. All around good book though. :)Book Review: "The PERFECT Stocking Stuffer For..."
Summary: 5 Stars
Was just thinking what a PERFECT stocking stuffer this book would make for soon-to-be moms. Books have always been my favorite stocking stuffer. Much better than the mindless toys and trinkets most people give.
