Book Reviews of What to Expect When You're Expecting, Third Edition
Book Review: Good but not as expected
Summary: 3 Stars
The book is not as I expected, I heard alot about it therefore I thought it was much more than that. It's a good one though, I give it a 3.
Book Review: great book!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my very favorite pregnancy book. I also have the mother of All Pregnancy Books. This book, 'What to Expect' actually did a lot better job of calming my fears than the other book. "The Mother of All Pregnancy Books' scared me a little more.(but that is still a good book and I am glad I have both) This one assures you that why you need to be careful and wise, that the chances of something bad happening are still pretty low. I don't get that other people think this book makes them paranoid or its negative. I can't figure it out. I guess everyones thinking works differently. Go figure. I do enjoy both of my books and am re-reading them for my third pregnancy. Its nice to have on hand for subsequent pregnancies. I can't imagine being pregnant without this book.
Its got a lot of positive and helpful and wise info, and is very encouraging.
Book Review: Like it but not enough
Summary: 4 Stars
The book has a lot of information very useful, especially because it is my first pregnancy. But I found the descripcion about was going on with the baby very general. I bought another book with this information week by week and I really appreciate it.Book Review: there's better stuff out there
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this book used for very little money and I think that's the only reason why I didn't return it. First time pregnant, I was pretty disappointed with this book. It's not fun to read and the information barely ever fit to my questions I had.
There are better books and better information out there - save your money.
Book Review: Even Jenny McCarthy's book was better...
Summary: 1 Stars
Almost in to my 6th month of my first pregnancy and I can't give you one single thing that this book has done for me yet! If you are the atypical pregnancy with barely any pregnancy symptoms, this book definitely has nothing for you. (However for some people, who may have no medical background at all, it can be somewhat helpful on the tests that will be done and what they are for.) I was more interested in the "how the baby is growing" subject... which is not even addressed in this book. Also this book has alot of Q&A which are useless questions in most cases, and some of them make you wonder? But honestly the internet and your friends/family can give you better advice. Personally I think it is a waste of money, unless you get a free copy from a friend.
