Description - Pregnancy For Dummies by Joanne Stone

Now updated--our bestselling guide to a safe and healthy
pregnancy
With robust sales and its own four-part cable TV series,
Pregnancy For Dummies has been a perennial favorite, giving
parents-to-be authoritative, friendly, up-to-date advice on every
aspect of pregnancy and childbirth. This new edition offers all of
the latest information expecting parents want to know, including
expanded coverage on the health and well-being of both mother and
child. It takes readers through the first, second, and third
trimesters, providing new and updated coverage of prenatal genetic
screening and diagnosis, amniocentesis, new high-tech ultrasounds,
and the revised FDA/USDA food pyramid. It also discusses the recent
celebrity trend of "on-demand" cesarean sections, multiple births,
what to expect in labor and delivery, postpartum care, choosing
bottle or breastfeeding, preparing a home (and siblings) for a new
baby, caring for preemies, and the mother's mental as well as
physical health.
"A thorough, accurate, and highly informative guide."
