Book Description

0312347278 978-0312347277 March 21, 2006 1st
You're pregnant. It's exciting, and a little scary, and you are discovering that your body is doing things that you have never heard about or read about in any pregnancy manual. It would be great if your best girlfriend was going through this with you, but if not, Stacy Quarty is here to give you the truth about pregnancy - raging hormones and all.

Stacy takes readers, week-by-week, through what she was experiencing and thinking about her pregnancy, her body, her husband, and more. She discusses the symptoms of the week (morning sickness, hemorrhoids, enormous breasts); experiences of girlfriends; and anecdotes on everything from cravings to c-sections. An extensive Q&A section includes questions from real women that are embarrassing, odd, and unusual and may include just the question you've been too nervous to ask yourself. Throughout the book Dr. Miriam Greene provides a dose of a medical perspective on the adventure of pregnancy.

With warmth, humor, and no shame, Frankly Pregnant takes the myth and mystery out of pregnancy and really tells it like it is.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you are pregnant- READ THIS BOOK!!!, May 3, 2006
By 
This review is from: Frankly Pregnant: A Candid, Week-by-Week Guide to the Unexpected Joys, Raging Hormones, and Common Experiences of Pregnancy (Paperback)
This book is a fantastic guide to the month by month trials and tribulations of being pregnant. It had the answers to all my crazy questions and I got a lot of relief from the author's candid writing about her own experiences. This is a MUST read for anyone who is pregnant. I only wish she had written it sooner!!! from a pregnant 2nd time Mom

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulously Funny, May 3, 2006
This review is from: Frankly Pregnant: A Candid, Week-by-Week Guide to the Unexpected Joys, Raging Hormones, and Common Experiences of Pregnancy (Paperback)
This book is funny and enjoyable. It's not the typical "Do this" and "Don't do that" guide to pregnancy. It's more like a whole bunch of girlfriends getting together to compare, inform, and laught about the whole process. After I read Frankly Pregnant, I felt much more at ease about my pregnancy and less embaressed about the weird things my body is doing as this baby grows inside me. It's a good dose of common sense with a sense of humour.
