I purchased this book hoping to show it to women, and get them interested in being photographed by me, while pregnant. This is a beautiful book, showing how gorgeous women can look during pregnancy, and they're not just "fat". It makes me wish I had photographs taken like these. The book is well put together too, with sheer vellum pages with the photos printed on them, as well as regular pages. A classy production.

The photography is beautifully done...although I would have loved to have seen at least ONE stretch mark, or one non-airbrushed photograph (but I guess that wouldn't sell as well). The pregnant form is just amazing...and it is captured beautifully in these photographs. All of the women seem to be around 6-7 months, however...and I would have loved to have seen some that were closer to their estimated due dates. At any rate, a very well done book...worth the money.

Who would have pictured a book like this that actually makes pregnancy romantic? The color photography is luxurious! What a cool baby shower gift!

I was thrilled with this book. The photos are beautiful. The text is inspirational. I think this is a wonderful book for about the joy and miracle of birth. Thank you!

Don't get me wrong, I think the photography in this book is very well done and some of the photos are very interesting, but I think it can be a rather depressing book for the basic female population.

I am an OB/GYN and I constantly see women who are concerned about their weight or their body image when pregnant and I dont see this book as being very helpful. I see famous models and wives that are pregnant but not reflective of the general pregnant population. I think they should have shown the woman that weighs 180-200 lbs or the woman with stretch marks and how beautiful they can be as well.

I would not consider placing this in my waiting room for fear of a riot from my patients. I think all pregnant women are beautiful and they dont need to spend (money)on a book that shows them......they need to be told by their spouses.

Spend the money on "What to expect when you're expecting."

I bought this book for a pregnant friend of mine after seeing Danica on Oprah. The pictures will take your breath away. It's a beautiful celebration of the joys of being pregnant. This would be a great pick-me-up for a women who doesn't feel especially beautiful during her pregnancy, or an inspirational idea book for creating a pregancy photo album. I loved it so much that I didn't want to give it away...

This book shows beautiful photos of mothers-to-be.Life is wonderful thing.

These gorgeous portraits of pregnant women inspired me through both of my pregnancies. Beautiful details, beautiful fullness, simply radiant!
