Book Reviews of Your Pregnancy Week by Week (Your Pregnancy Series)
Book Review: Beats a Stephen King book, if you are pregnant
Summary: 2 Stars
This book is informative, but is a litany of all things that can go wrong! After reading through this book, I was convinced that no Mom or Child can possibly survive and baby(ies) can be born without defects.
Look around you and you'd see a world teeming with fairly healthy individuals, so mother nature has more control on things than you give her credit for in this book.
Spine tingling!!
Book Review: Great for First Pregnancy
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this as a gift for a friend for her pregnancy. She loved it then let me use it during my first pregnancy. I looked forward to reading it every week and my husband would listen very attentively. It does give a lot of medical information about things that could go wrong in pregnancy, but the amount of useful and fascinating information definitely was more memorable. I suppose all information is good to know, but being a avid worrier it was at times more than I need to know. Book Review: Good, Basic Resource
Summary: 4 Stars
My friend gave me this book with a recommendation that my husband and I read it together each week and that is why I recommend the book. I have read lots about pregnancy but this is the one I enjoy because each week my husband asks what we get to learn about our son. It is a good amount of info to keep him informed and helpful for me. The format of the book has given us a time that is one of my favorites in my pregnancy.
This book has less of a bias than others. It is true that the organization of this book is not as helpful as it could be BUT I have not really found one that has a great organization. As for the scare tactics, I am very cautious but this book is a lot less scary than others. As with any book, always check the info with your doctor.
Book Review: Great week by week book!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this book because it explains things for each week of your pregnancy! It is also written by a doctor so there is a lot of great information. I would recommend this book to everyone expecting a baby!!Book Review: It's ok as supplement reading.
Summary: 3 Stars
It's a good book. I got some good info from it, but it wasn't nearly as helpful or as well-written as "What to Expect When You're Expecting." The boasts all over the book are that it was written by a doctor. Yeah, it reads like it. Kind of all over the place, and you get lots of information, but then you walk away saying, "What" It has father tips in it, but they are rather lame, and seem to be present for the sake of being present, as if the book was written for men too. I like the break down of weeks, but it's not my favorite source of information.
