Can you ask your friend to do your baby's laundry? When should you tell your boss you're pregnant? How do you let your mother-in-law know that you are not naming the baby after her? And what idf your water breaks in public? Everything Else You Need To Know is the complete guide to the old and new customs, traditions, and etiquette for expectant and new parents, and those who love them. After years of both professional and firsthand experience, Paula Spencer has complied the answers to those questions every woman asks herself as soon as she knows she's expecting. Topics include Pregnancy at Work, Handling Busybodies, and Tricky Issues(such as those all-too-common anxiety about starting labor in a crowd-or an elevator). here are also detailed explorations of such concerns as naming, birth announcements, and shower gifts.
