Amazon.com Review:
When you're pregnant, there is nothing more exciting thankeeping up with the drastic changes your body undergoes on a weeklybasis. In Your Pregnancy Week by Week, Glade B. Curtis,M.D. (Your PregnancyQuestions and Answers, Your Pregnancy AfterThirty) has written a clear, easy to follow guidebook. Each"week" includes information on: How Big Is Your Baby?, How Big AreYou?, How Your Baby Is Growing and Developing, Changes in You, HowYour Actions Affect Your Baby's Development, You Should Also Know, anda Tip of the Week. With the exception of the You Should Also Knowsections (which sometimes focus on rare problems and concerns), thetone of the book is informative, chatty and reassuring. An extensive,excellent glossary adds value. Your Pregnancy Week by Weekseems intended to both simplify and expand on the information aninexperienced or first-time mother-to-be receives from her medicalprovider. It is especially ideal for very young pregnant women seekingto better understand the changes in their bodies. --Ericka Lutz

- Great book for expectant Moms!
My sister got me this book when I told her I was pregnant because she had used it with both of hers.It's great!It not only gives you the average stats for yourself and the baby at each week, but also tells you tests that the doctor may perform/suggest at your next appointment and gives you a clue as to what they are.
I noticed that most of the negative reviews for this book focused on the fact that it mentions things that could go wrong/possible negatives.Well, as a medical professional, ... Read More

- Terrible-Depressing book-don't buy it
This book is terrible, depressing and fills your head with doubts and problems.There is hardly a positive note, the doctor is a hypochondriac at best and every week (save for 3 or 4) has some horrible disease that your baby could get.I am not exaggerating, it is that bad.I know there can be concerns and problems do happen, but for a weekly pregnancy book, you should consider something else to keep you positive and upbeat.Pregnancy can be hard enough.
Rating: - Would recomment this book for expecting fathers and mothers.
We were loaned htis book for our first pregnancy.We recommended this book to every expecting family that asked us about good baby shower gifts.It is neat to see how the baby is developing during the pregnancy and in some ways I think it helped everything seem more real and gave my wife and I a way to connect with the baby more during the pregnancy, and it also has some helpful hints for expecting fathers about what to expect and what you might want to be doing and thinking about during each week....

Rating: - Very good!
This book offers a thorough explanation of what happens each week of pregnancy.It was suggested to me by a mother of 4 and I suggest it to anyone who is interested in what is going on in there between doctor's visits.
Rating: - Please don't buy it...don't even READ it.
My friend loaned me this book for my second pregnancy (she already has 2 toddlers) and I must say that it is terrible.You would be better off with "What to Expect" ONLY rather than along with this book or this book alone.As other reviewers have said, the week at which they choose to introduce certain topics boggles my mind.While I don't really mind the in-depth discussion about choosing your birth facility and figuring out your insurance coverage in week 9, why (oh why!?) does this come so early ...
