Here is the most up-to-date and complete information about pregnancy, presented in a unique week-by-week format. A new edition of a favorite, it features more charts, checklists, and boxes, as well as places to fill in information about Mom's medical history, doctor's appointments, weight gain or loss, exercise program, and more..About the Authors:Glade B. Curtis, M.D., OB/GYN, is in private practice in Sandy, Utah. Judith Schuler, M.S., has collaborated with Dr. Curtis on all his books. Library Journal This book is a worthy addition in this subject area. Its format, information, and language are both highly accessible and current. As the title states, pregnancy is followed week by week. A chapter is devoted to each week, covering six basic areas: baby size; mother's size; baby's growth and development; changes in the mother; how the mother's behavior affects development; and things ``you should also know.'' A vast range of material is included, making this a bargain for the price. Similar to but more comprehensive (and up to date) than When You're Expecting by Arlene Eisenberg & others (Workman, 1984), this would be an excellent complement to the more recent The Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons Complete Guide to Pregnancy ( LJ 4/15/89).-- Kathleen L. Atwood, Pomfret Sch. Lib., Ct.
