Title: Good overall knowledge; explains changes your body goes thru
Review: What to expect while you're expecting is a good, well rounded reference guide for the expectant mother. This book can be very reassuring for the first time mother who is not familiar with all the changes her body may be going through. It is also a very helpful reference if you suspect that something may be seriously wrong with you. Of course, the authors suggest seeing a physician immediately if something should go wrong- and this book is not intended to take the place of adequate medical care. The only thing this book really lacks is an adequate description of what the actual birth experience is like; for this I recommend, The Girlfriend's Guide to Pregnancy (Iovine, 1995). This book is user friendly, and provides vicarious details of countless other women and their birth experiences. A good read.
