It's filled with the most up-to-date information reflecting not only what's new in pregnancy, but what's relevant to pregnant women.

Great Book!!!!
I really recommend this book to expecting mothers. I usually do not write reviews but I felt I had to do it for this book For me as a future first time Dad was a good source for information, and advices. I'm the type of person who worries about all and everything. This book helped me getting started and understanding the pregnancy step by step with my wife. Thanks to Overstock I had a good price for it.

love the info - hate the jokes
Shipping was a little slower then I would have expected. This was the first book I ordered when I found out, so I was running to the mailbox everyday... It took over a week and a half to show but it was in perfect condition. The content is amazing, there is a wealth of knowledge in this book that you won't be able to find in one place anywhere else. The only complaint I have about the book is their lame attempts at humor. But I guess trying to make things light. Just be ready to roll your eyes from time to time.
