Customer Reviews

Thank you so much for a well written, concise book to ease my fears

When I found out I was pregnant I had so many concerns about what I could do versus what I really shouldn't do to ensure the health of my unborn child. I soon found out I was expecting twins and that only added to my fears about how to ensure I was doing what was best for my babies. When I found this book I was relieved to know that much of what I was already doing was perfectly safe, and for those questions that remained I consulted this book on a number of occasions. It is clear, concise and well written. I found that I could easily get the answers to my questions and go on enjoying my pregnancy. I would definitely recommend this book to any pregnant woman!!

I expect to use this book every day of my pregancy. It has information about all of the things that I have been worrying about during my pregnancy - food, food additives, environmental issues, medicines, exercise, and more. In an easy-to use reference format, there is a description of what current research understands about each topic, and sensible recommendations. I feel as though I am better able to make informed choices.
