Summary: DANGEROUSLY INACCURATE
Comment: I agree that this book is poorly organized -- but on top of that, the information in it isn't even true! For example, she claims that tofu has 20 grams of protein for four ounces-- not on this planet. In reality it's about half of that, about 9-13 grams. Same deal with beans-- she says 22 grams of protein in 1/2 cup of black beans--truth is more like about 7g! She also says that "iron anemia during pregnancy is normal." Yikes!! It's terirbly dangerous and can make you hemorrage during birth! Chuck this book!

Summary: Useless Book - reads like it was thrown together in a week
Comment: Useless anecdotal information from the author and a ridiculous number of stories from other vegetarian mothers. We get it already - it's OK to be a pregnant vegetarian!! The first two sections are nearly totally the above and the rest is simplistic nutritional information which can be had anywhere. If you want eating plans and recipes don't buy this book. I agree with the other reviewer that What To Eat When Your Expecting is a gem next to this one. Don't waste your money!

Summary: Not informative
Comment: I was expecting a guide to putting together a balanced diet for myself during pregnancy. I was terribly disappointed. This book is full of opinions, medical and nutritional misinformation, and personal anecdotes. Its main message is that it is OK to follow a vegetarian diet during pregnancy. I knew that before I read the book.
I found "What to Eat When You're Expecting" to be much more helpful. "What to Eat" has plenty of guidelines for putting together a diet that contains the nutrients you need, whether or not you make a vegetarian choice.
