Excellent and Comprehensive Guide,

This review is from: Conception, Pregnancy & Birth: THE CHILDBIRTH BIBLE FOR TODAY'S PARENTS (Hardcover)
I spent hours at the local bookstore browsing through the "Pregnancy and Childcare" section, and this is the book I chose. Dr. Miriam Stoppard thoughtfully educates new parents-to-be with unbiased information and illustrations. Other books seemed to be either too clinical or trying too hard to be "down to earth" or "real". I appreciate their efforts, but I can find that kind of information online or check it out from the library for a quick read. This is a fascinating book that covers everything from genetic counseling to sex after delivery and will be an invaluable guide for anyone interested in learning more about childbirth.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Conception, Pregnancy & Birth: THE CHILDBIRTH BIBLE FOR TODAY'S PARENTS (Hardcover)
Detailed descriptions all the way through, plenty of pictures too! Walks through the developmental process for the birth process! I have four kids, this book has been with us through all of them. we have had many others but this is by far the best. find the newe one with the white cover if you can, it has better pictures.

Prenatal and Postnatal guide,
By Jeanne (Maryland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Conception, Pregnancy & Birth: The Childbirth Bible for Today's Parents (Paperback)
Although, I do like this book since it has a lot of great information, I wish it was more elaborate. Along with information on conception, pregnancy and birth, this book provides quality photos and illustrations. I bought this book along with Heidi Murkoff's, "What to Expect When You're Expecting: 4th Edition". Murkoff's book details each month of pregnancy down to each week. Miriam Stoppard's book does not, however, she does give an overview of each month.
This book has information on conception, pregnancy, labor and delivery, and how to care for the baby after they're born. I definitely recommend this book along with Heidi Murkoff's WTEWYE: 4th Edition.
