The pregnancy bible! A month-by-month guide, full of answers to all your questions! Very reassuring to know that you're not the only one suffering from all the weird symptoms!

Most women consider this the pregnancy Bible. :] I have read it with each of my pregnancies and while I don't agree with a lot of the "do what the doctor says every time" mentality, it does have some great info about each stage of pregnancy and what the baby is doing, etc. I enjoyed it for that part.

This is not called 'the pregnancy bible' for nothing! It has info for all situations you might encounter and is a great resource for all your 'what if's'.

I used this book 2 times, once with my first child then, with my second. I found it really helpful and easy to use when i was looking up something. It takes you month by month, and thats how i would recomend reading it. Plus, its a great book to have for reviewing the important stuuf you might have forgotten.

probably the most informative book i've ever read.
Jenny D. from SIMPSONVILLE, SC wrote on 6/3/2008...I found this book helpful when going through my first pregnancy. They seem to be a dime a dozen, very popular.
Melissa P. from DECATUR, AL wrote on 4/28/2008...I really enjoyed having this book to read through as my pregnancy progressed. It is also a great reference guide when things come up during your pregnancy, especially when no one else is available to answer any questions. The question and answer format is easy to follow, and a must have for the expectant mother.
Jessie G. (I was scared out of my mind before I had my first daughter. Think goodness for this book, it was a lifesaver. Everytime she kicked or I felt something was wrong I could pick up this book and save myself from calling my doctor and sounding like a lunatic.
This book was so helpful. I referred to it constantly while I was expecting.
Kathleen Marie O. (An excellent book for all expectant mothers, whether it is your first or fifth!
Full of information and things you need to know. A lot of people get freaked out by some of the things it talks about (like preeclampsia and other things that happen more often on TV than in real life) but I found it kind of reassuring to read about what you can do if you *do* develop complications.
i used this book for all 3 of my pregnancies and I really enjoyed it with each one.
