Negative Positive
Title: negative, disorganized, one-sided
Review: I'm in my late 30s, pregnant with my first child, and like many reviewers, have had this book pushed on me by several people, and received it as a gift. I hate it. The question-answer format is really frustrating because the organization makes little sense, and my own questions often have a somewhat different flavor from those posed in the book, so that the answers don't really address my concerns. I feel like the book talks down to me. My biggest complaint: Pregnancy is a time of ambivalence as well as excitement, and this book downplays and dismisses the incredibly mixed feelings I'm experiencing. I've felt guilty about these feelings and this book made them worse. Come to find out, from talking to others, that I'm normal and most women have ambivalence! That's too important a piece to leave out. Having said all the negative, I have learned some useful things from this book and will incorporate the information into the way I get throught my pregnancy
