Congratulations, you're having a baby! From the moment you see the positive test result, your world has changed. Alongside the excitement, you might feel daunted by the journey ahead. What should I be eating? What's going on down there? Wait, how many tests do I need to have?

Moving from conception to labor and beyond, they help you decide what's best for you and your baby, while demystifying the changes in your body. In this newly updated fifth edition, Dr. Milovina and Dr. Brown share the latest findings on the most asked-about topics, including:

  • What it takes to grow a human: Find the latest guidelines on your nutritional needs and selecting a prenatal vitamin.
  • How to adapt your daily routines: Understand how to exercise safely, determine if you need to adjust your personal care routine, and steer clear of environmental hazards.
  • Prepping for the big event and beyond: Know what to expect with labor, get a preview of the birth experience, and pick up strategies for postpartum recovery.
  • Special situations: Are you at an advanced maternal age? Carrying twins? Worried about your preterm infant? Dr. Milovina and Dr. Brown cover it all.
