Very Helpful (2008-11-30) Rating: 5/5
With my first pregnancy I ordered several books on pregnancy and this was by far the best. It has week by week updates as well as weekly pictures of your developing baby. I have now ordered additional copies of this book as gifts.
Great resource (2008-11-26) Rating: 5/5
After searching Amazon.com for the right pregnancy book, I settled on this one. I have not been disappointed. I love the week-by-week photos of your baby inside the womb, and I have learned a lot about my pregnant body from reading this book. Some reviewers didn't like the graphic photos, but they are real photos. I will admit that there are a lot of photos of naked pregnant women, but it does give you a good idea of how your body changes. I recommend this book to pregnant women who want real photos and lots of truthful information.

Not that good (2008-10-24) Rating: 2/5
I purchased this book at the recommendation of a coworker. I returned it the next day. The book has some rather graphic pictures and is not all that informative. I found What to "Expect When You're Expecting" to be the best pregnancy related book. Even my fiance liked reading it.
Great book! (2008-10-24) Rating: 5/5
I was reading What to expect when you are expecting and then I heard about this book and I ordered it and I cannot tell you how much I love it! It has such vivid pictures and allows you to see each week what your baby looks like. I would highly reccomend this book to all new moms!
