Now That You're Pregnant

By Louise Edeiken

"One symptom of pregnancy is that one does not remember all the important things pregnancy, childbirth, and the post-partum period require. Now That You're Pregnant is the answer to all of us who might otherwise be overwhelmed by the new demands a pregnancy requires. Having all the vital reminders and information in one book is a wonderful way to manage and organize this exciting period in one's life." --Elisabeth Bing, FACCE, Co-founder of ASPO/Lamaze "Month by month, everything you need to ask or think about during your pregnancy. It's all here in one very organized place " --Susan Strecker, Editor in Chief, Baby Talk magazine So you're pregnant Congratulations This is a wonderful and exciting time in your life, but one that requires that you make many decisions and keep track of an unbelievable amount of information. Now That You're Pregnant will serve as a valuable reminder of what has to be done and an all-in-one-place record of what you've already decided and what you still have to do. Now That You're Pregnant covers everything, including things like: choosing an obstetrician and pediatrician deciding where to have the baby (hospital, birthing center, or home?) finding a safe exercise program assembling the layette and has plenty of space for writing things down, whether it be all the items you've borrowed from family and friends or whom you need to send birth announcements to. Don't be scrambling for information you "put somewhere" or be faced with decisions you should have made months ago--let Now That You're Pregnant be your constant companion.

It'll get you organized for sure

If you really thought about it, a little baby is going to come into this world totally dependant on you, with nothing. No clothes, no hairbrush, no crib. Its all up to you. This is the only planner to actually help you plan out your purchases & borrowings so that when your baby arrives, you've thought of everything. When to apply for a SSN for the baby, questions to ask pediatricians, health care providers, midwives. When to and what to buy (clothes, furniture etc.) to spread the expense out. It has space for you to fill in all your answers too. I love this planner. Looking ahead, yeah, you have 9 months, but when you realize all that has to be done you may panic. This planner keeps it and you all together. I'm getting a second for our second pregnancy. Congratualtions!

This book takes the panic out of pregnancy.

Louise Edeiken and Johanna Antar are to be congratulated on their bouncing baby book, Now That You're Pregnant. The book is small, light and totebagable. The no-nonsense checklist format especially appeals to Dads-to-be...no wading through warm, fuzzy paragraphs on the joys of motherhood and feeling left out. Leave it to these two professional organizers.... Who wants to worry about insurance policies and diaper services, labor and lab work when there are bigger issues at stake...macadamia nut or choco-mint with that kosher dill? This book really takes the panic out of pregnancy. It's the best gift you can give or receive.
