Title: Poor quality book with misinformation
Product review: I picked up this book not only for the journal aspect of it, but also for the information sprinkled through it. The 'Your Growing Baby' sections on week 1 and week 2 are patently, completely, unabashadly false. As this book reckons the pregnancy timetable (starting from last period and ending at 40 weeks), there is no baby present during weeks 1 and 2, unless the mother ovulated incredibly early (which would throw the book's other milestones all off anyhow). There is enough confusion and misunderstanding regarding fertility; we don't need a book telling women they conceive during their periods.In the end, this book fulfills neither of the goals it aspires to: it is too unweildly and large to take to prenatal visits, while the information it gives is scanty and misleading enough to make it a very substandard pregnancy book. Maybe that's why I found my copy at a thrift store? Ditch this book and pick up 'Your Pregnancy, Week by Week' instead.
