This review is from: Baby & Me: The Essential Guide to Pregnancy and Newborn Care (Paperback)

I have a 5 year old child and am now 7 months pregnant with my second child, I discovered things in this books that i went thru in my first pregnancy and that i had no idea of the purposes of it, this book explains everything in details and i'm able to understand more of what is going on inside of my body, i feel that after reading this book i'm ready for anything that comes and has to do with parenthood, I wish i would've read this book when i was pregnant with my first child it would've definitely helped me a lot, i recommend this book, for every woman that is expecting, is planning on having a child or already has a child, because this books helps with all three stages...
