Book Description

September 9, 2004
For years, parents-to-be have squinted at fuzzy ultrasound photos, desperately trying to make out the head, or is that the foot? Now, new technology in the form of 3- and 4-D ultrasound scans have given prospective parents a clear "window into the womb." These amazingly detailed images allow parents to see their baby's organs and structures in development and allow them to marvel at what their baby is doing. This book offers:

*An astonishing series of pictures that demonstrates fetal behavior
*A week-by-week look at how babies develop in the uterus, narrated from the perspective of the baby
*Special Feature sidebars that answer important questions such as "How soon will I know whether my baby is boy or a girl?"and "What can my baby do, and when?"

Guided by the expert hand of a pioneer obstetrician in the field, now everyone can be thrilled by the wonders of creation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent photos and descriptions! Perfect for new mothers, November 15, 2004

This review is from: Watch Me Grow: A Unique, 3-Dimensional Week-by-Week Look at Your Baby's Behavior and Development in the Womb (Hardcover)
Nobody has reviewed this great book yet, so I thought I'd write my first review and this book's first review. There are a lot of fetal development books with nice drawings, and even lots of ultrasound books. Two things set this book apart. First, the photos here are unbelievable--the author uses the latest in ultrasound technology to give a real 3-dimensional view inside the womb. And while the real magic is probably seeing these videos live, he gives frame-by-frame "filmstrips" to show you the movement of babies yawning, walking, etc. Second, the book is writing in a great conversational style, demonstrating to the reader that the baby growing inside is a real person that reacts to the world around them. A great gift for expectant mothers to see what's going on inside, and especially for explaining to a child what is happening. From only a few weeks, amazing things are going on inside that little world. 5-stars!

This review is from: Watch Me Grow: A Unique, 3-Dimensional Week-by-Week Look at Your Baby's Behavior and Development in the Womb (Hardcover)
I have a lot of books about pregnancy and this is by far my absolute favorite. I am currenty on my second pregnancy and still every week I grab the book to see what my baby looks like this week. The photos are great and there is something special about seeing exactly what the baby looks like inside of you at that moment. This book makes an EXCELLENT gift for anyone who has just found out that they are expecting. Each week there is also a tidbit of information on any developmental milestones reached that week. This book is so simple and easy to read and well, just looking at the pictures makes you feel a stronger bond with your baby.

4.0 out of 5 stars Concise, informative, not too technical, September 29, 2005
This review is from: Watch Me Grow: A Unique, 3-Dimensional Week-by-Week Look at Your Baby's Behavior and Development in the Womb (Hardcover)
I've always thought that 3-D ultrasound images look weird and distorted. I still do, but this is a great little book that gives a nice basic overview of the development of the fetus in the womb. Good to give to dads ;)
