Summary: I read it with my 1st child!
Comment: This is my second pregnancy, and my 4-year old son had tons of questions about why it will take so long for the baby to grow. A friend recommended this book, and my son & I read it every week together. It keeps him involved in what's going on and helps to explain why the baby needs to stay in "Mommy's tummy" so long. I don't explain everything to him, but he gets the gist of it. My husband and I also read this book together weekly.
I highly recommend this book as a realistic approach to childbirth. Labor is painful, so what's wrong with pointing that out? It's better to be prepared than to go into the delivery room with unrealistic expectations. If you can't find something where you think it should be, use the index. This book isn't "scary"...it's informative. I had several things go wrong with my first pregnancy, and I wish I had taken the time to read about the possibilities beforehand. I'm much better informed this time, and this book has played a major part in that preparation.
But mainly, I just love knowing what's going on with my baby every week. It helps me feel connected to him/her until I can start feeling movement.

Summary: great reference
Comment: I bought this book with my first pregnancy and I found it very easy to follow. The explainations are easy to follow and the book includes info for the father-to-be too. I love the week by week format, it's much easier to follow than month by month. I'm now expecting our 2nd child.

Summary: Week-by-week format is very appealing
Comment: My husband and I really enjoyed the week-by-week format of this book. We would flip open the book each Sunday night and read head to see what that week had in store for us and our baby. It became a very special ritual for us as a couple. Other books that also were helpful to us in sharing our pregnancy in this way were The Unofficial Guide to Having a Baby -- 2nd edition (which also follows a week-by-week format); The Pregnancy Journal (which has info about your baby's development on a day-by-day basis); From Conception to Birth (which shows amazing photos about fetal development); and A Child is Born (another great guide to fetal development). We each also had our own favorite pregnancy books. My husband really enjoyed The Expectant Father and She's Having Baby while I really enjoyed The Mother of All Pregnancy Books and The Girlfriend's Guide. As you can see, books were a major budget item for us while I was pregnant, but we were lucky enough to have friends pass on some of these books second hand and I picked up some second hand books online, too. We had to purchase a few of the newer books (like The Unofficial Guide to Having a Baby -- 2nd edition) brand new, however. Still, it was definitely worth it because knowing what was going on with our baby and my body really increased our enjoyment of pregnancy and helped us to feel more prepared for pregnancy, birth, and parenthood.
