Book Reviews of What to Expect When You're Expecting, Third Edition
Book Review: Good, BUT.......
Summary: 2 Stars
This book answered a lot of questions, but was too hyper and anal. What to Expect should come shrink wrapped with the Girlfriends Guide to Pregnancy, to prevent panic attacks. I had preterm labor and found nothing in this book to help me out or understand what was going on.Book Review: Not the best AT ALL
Summary: 2 Stars
The book was a good starting point, but had a lot of misleading information. Seemed like every other day I thought I was having a miscarriage (during the first trimester) because of this book. My husband took it away from me and bought "Your Pregnancy Week by Week", which was much more positive and informative.Book Review: Informative - but stressful and in some ways unrealistic.
Summary: 3 Stars
This book includes some really great information for the newly-pregnant woman. However, the section on diet is absolutely ridiculous and unrealistic. It makes the reader feel completely inadequate and changes mealtime into an ordeal.Book Review: YOU HAVE TO GET THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this book from my health insurance company (!) when I became pregnant for the first time. It was a starting point for my research about myself and my then unborn baby. Sufficed to say, I wasted a lot of money on books that weren't nearly as good and reassuring as this one.Simply stated, "everyone's pregnancy is different" - this book assured me that I was not a (completely) insane and to "hang in there" and ride the storm.I have few negative comments about the book - I'm actually struggling to find one to prove I've actually read it - trust me, though - I have - and you really must!!!I've lent my book out so many times (and never got it back) that I finally just started buying it for friends whenever they said they were pregnant - or even just thinking about it.Seriously though, buy it, read it and good luck with your pregnancy.Book Review: A wonderful book with everything you need to know
Summary: 5 Stars
"What to Expect When You're Expecting" is a book which has all the information a pregnant woman needs. It even has a section for fathers-to-be. This book covers questions, fears, exercise, diet, and provides a month-by-month guide to let you know what is normal to be experiencing at that time.
