Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
The number of women choosing to marry later and invest more time in their careers before starting a family has jumped dramatically, and thus, these same women are having their first children years later than the generation preceding them. Authors Goetzl, a high risk pregnancy specialist, and Harford, a medical writer, have compiled an excellent and substantial resource for women facing midlife childbirth and childrearing. From planning conception, to detailing physical and emotional changes, to making adjustments to early motherhood, the authors combine their personal experiences with professional and medical savvy. Full-color pictures and expertly drawn sketches complete each section. One of the most reader-friendly aspects of this book is the two-page per topic layout, especially handy for busy women who only want a cursory background take on particular topics. First-time moms older than 35 do have some special considerations to reduce their chances of experiencing a high-risk pregnancy, and the authors provide encouraging data to prevent or minimize such occurrences. Another helpful and insightful section covers the ins and outs of making the decision to become pregnant and how this will alter relationships and career advancement. Women over 35 considering pregnancy will find solid, sound advice in this superior resource.

Great book, Sep 18 2008
By Tabitha VonCannon "Tabitha" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Healthy Pregnancy After 35 (Paperback)
I really like this book. It's my first informational book on pregnancy and I'm finding it very helpful. Yes, it could contain a lot more information on the specifics, but it gives a nice overview of pregnancy. It also gives points and facts based on the specific age group it is targeting which is why I got it in the first place.
