Mid-Ohio Valley Parent, January 2012
“This has been a great resource for moms-to-be throughout the years and this latest edition is no exception!”
InfoDad.com, 1/12/12
“This excellent book…certainly does make the process from pregnancy to birth (and for the first month or so afterwards) much easier to cope with and understand…The sensitivity and care with which Curtis and Schuler present all information—positive, negative or neutral—remain hallmarks of this fact-packed and thick oversize paperback…Reading it provides much of the assurance of a knowledgeable 24-hour-a-day companion who can take you through the many vicissitudes of pregnancy with a firm and knowing hand. Even women who have been pregnant before will benefit from the information here—and those in their first pregnancies will find the book invaluable.”

A fantastic guide for pregnant women looking for a traditional hospital birth
Mar 6 2012
By Holly Scudero
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Upon finding out that they are pregnant, the first thing many women do (besides scheduling an appointment with their doctor or midwife) is go shopping for books. There are many pregnancy guides available, covering every baby-related topic under the sun, but it's important to get one that is as up-to-date as possible. Thank goodness for the new, seventh edition of "Your Pregnancy Week by Week"! This is one of those books that aims to answer every question readers could possibly have about how pregnancy affects their own health and about the growth of their baby. Each chapter tells readers how big their baby is during a particular week and offers information and advice on common pregnancy ailments, things that might come up when dealing with their healthcare provider, nutrition, exercise, and even topics like traveling and preparing your pet for your baby. As this book is written by a board certified gynecologist, pregnancy is approached from a very traditional, hospital-oriented view; readers who are interested in alternative birth topics will not find much useful information on ideas like birth centers or doulas. Readers will appreciate the extensive index, which makes it easy to find information on a specific subject, and everything is clearly-explained. Most women will find that this book contains everything they need for a healthy pregnancy.

I love this book. The pictures are great, it's wonderful to see where the baby is at every week. I liked this book a lot more than What to Expect When You're Expecting. I recommend this book to everyone I know who is expecting.

Great so far

Format:Paperback
I went to go open "What to Expect When Expecting" and it was downright horrifying. The first few chapters seemed to be about everything that could go wrong. I quickly ditched it and bought "Your Pregnancy Week by Week" and it is much more optimistic. Everything is neatly organized into a by-the-week manner, and it include pregnancy tips for both mom and dad, pictures, and lots of information. Would most defiantly recommend!
