What to Expect When You're Expecting: (Updated in 2024)

I was very uneasy looking at how much there was to read but it wasnt as bad as I thought.Not only is it an easy read its a very informative one.The book breaks everything down well and gives sources.Its a great book for anyone especially first time pregnancy.

Very informative for a first time pregnancy. Would definitely recommend.

This is the go-to book for pregnant moms showing you clearly how the baby develops and how your body changes month by month. I recommend buying this if you are trying to get pregnant with your first child. You don't know you are pregnant right away so you'll have this on hand when you find out you are. May daughter and her husband had fertility issues also. A nice nurse recommended the book, It Starts with an Egg to provide information on that issue.

We purchased this book after finding out we have our first baby on the way. Our OBGYN also gave us a copy so now we have too which is great because my husband has his own copy. Its fun to read through it together and follow along week by week, month by month. Theres lot's of great information, answering questions we have and also informing us about things we didn't even consider!

I’ve sent four of these books to pregnant friends and they love them! It’s the same book I read in the 90’s with significant updates added in 2024.The book answers so many questions, many you’d never know about otherwise!

Content good however.

Wish I could give more than 5 star if I could.Bought this book for myself as first time mom. I'd say this book does help ease on my mind and learn a lot of information and some medical words that I may not know. And it also helped me to be bit prepare at every visit for my OB prenatal check up. It is very long but that is okay the book is trying to write in simple English language in way easy level for person who isn't big fan of reader/bookworm it is very straight forward and clearly as needed, plus author has a humor in there too lol's. Id say great for baby shower or gift to mom when she find out she is having babyOn the last I will be warning at two last chapter of book They do give you head up to be prepare about the complex in issues like pregnancy loss/ managing complications Nobody want to read that part but Understandably to learn something new about it, myself as I was like brush off and thought I would handle it to try read whole book as I can (I did) but at last chapter I tear up a bit. (thats my problem but its okay)

I wish I had ordered this book sooner as it has so many helpful tips and advice. It made all my curious questions answered. It gives me that sigh of relief because of how many questions it answered for me. Great book for a first-timer. 👍
