Editorial Reviews: Announcing a brand new, cover-to-cover revision of America's pregnancy bible. What to Expect When You're Expecting is a perennial New York Times bestseller and one of USA Today's 25 most influential books of the past 25 years. It's read by more than 90% of pregnant women who read a pregnancy book—the most iconic, must-have book for parents-to-be, with over 14.5 million copies in print. Now comes the Fourth Edition, a new book for a new generation of expectant moms—featuring a new look, a fresh perspective, and a friendlier-than-ever voice. 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. Heidi Murkoff has rewritten every section of the book, answering dozens of new questions and including loads of new asked-for material, such as a detailed week-by-week fetal development section in each of the monthly chapters, an expanded chapter on pre-conception, and a brand new one on carrying multiples. More comprehensive, reassuring, and empathetic than ever, the Fourth Edition incorporates the most recent developments in obstetrics and addresses the most current lifestyle trends (from tattooing and belly piercing to Botox and aromatherapy). There's more than ever on pregnancy matters practical (including an expanded section on workplace concerns), physical (with more symptoms, more solutions), emotional (more advice on riding the mood roller coaster), nutritional (from low-carb to vegan, from junk food–dependent to caffeine-addicted), and sexual (what's hot and what's not in pregnant lovemaking), as well as much more support for that very important partner in parenting, the dad-to-be. Overflowing with tips, helpful hints, and humor (a pregnant woman's best friend), this new edition is more accessible and easier to use than ever before. It's everything parents-to-be have come to expect from What to Expect...only better?.
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Expecting Baby Comment: My youngest daughter is expecting her first baby in May 2010. She had a lot of questions and some worries too. This book has eased her mind and has helped her to understand all the changes happening to her during the time when she needs the information the most. Excellent resource for anyone having a baby - either their first or their fourth. I would recommend it to everyone having a baby. Customer Rating: Summary: The Worst To Expect When You're Expecting Comment: Please do not use this as your guide for pregnancy. It's downright terrifying! The author seems to love the medical community above all else, and the book contains little information for those seeking a healthy, HAPPY pregnancy outside of hospitals and doctor's offices. Check out "Ina May's Guide to Childbirth" instead--5 out of 5! :) Customer Rating: Summary: Dissatisfied Comment: I haven't received my book, I have purchased it and sent all my credit card infos... I even sent an email to the seller telling him, that I haven't received the book, buy he ne never answered me. Customer Rating: Summary: Very helpful and useful information Comment: I thought for the most part that this book was very helpful. I especially found the caffeine chart with milligrams for each particular item very useful. I also enjoy how it details each month of pregnancy individually. I am only 5-6 weeks along, so I have not read very far into yet, but I am enjoying what I have read so far. Customer Rating: Summary: Nice layout, helpful. Comment: I liked this book -- I was always excited to read ahead on what to expect in following months, and to re-read my current month. I did not find this alarming or pushy. Broad information that's easy to locate via index. Is a useful book for those enjoying healthy uneventful pregnancies in addition to the mother to be who has a high-risk pregnancy.
