In this completely revised and updated edition, Curtis describes the physical developments from weeks 1 through 40—or 41 or 42!—such as the size and weight of the baby, emotional changes in the mother, typical medical tests offered, and nutritional requirements. (The iron found in prenatal vitamins may exacerbate morning sickness, he writes, because iron supplementation is usually not needed until the final trimester.) It is too bad that Dr. Curtis does not recommend more alternative-medicine approaches for treating common pregnancy discomforts. In the chapter covering Week 8, he rightly describes sciatic-nerve pain as excruciating, but does not advise yoga or chiropractic treatments for its relief. However, he is hip to the use of doulas, or labor coaches, he encourages breastfeeding, and includes numerous tips for making your partner feel included in what should be a thrilling experience for you both. —Erica Jorgensen]]> 92133 3.86 956 247 92132 3.88 1007 264 1990 865664 0738209759 9780738209753 41 <![CDATA[Your Baby's First Year: Week By Week (Your Pregnancy Series), Second Edition]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1179012257m/865664.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1179012257s/865664.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/865664.Your_Baby_s_First_Year_Week_By_Week_Your_Pregnancy_Series_Second_Edition 3.74 181 Your Pregnancy Week by Week have come to love and rely on the same authors to guide them through the mind-boggling changes of their baby's first year.

Dr. Curtis, a gynecologist and father of five children, covers afterpains and specific steps to take after either a cesarean or vaginal delivery; warning signs that indicate you or your baby should see the doctor; breast- and bottle-feeding; nutrition for the breast-feeding mother; and exercise. He also includes tips for keeping the relationship with your partner close during this stressful time; birth control (yes, you need it even if you're breastfeeding); and issues surrounding childcare and returning to work.]]> 92133 3.86 956 247 92132 3.88 1007 264 2002 2867195 1555613195 9781555613198 1 <![CDATA[Your Pregnancy after 35]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2867195.Your_Pregnancy_after_35 3.75 4 Your Pregnancy After 35 is a realistic and reassuring guide for couples who have delayed parenthood.
