Finally, a calming pregnancy book that cuts through the noise to tell expectant mothers exactly what they need to knowâand what they can stop obsessing about and over-researching.
In The New Rules of Pregnancy, two leading OB-GYNs guide you, the modern pregnant woman, through all aspects of pregnant life in an easy-to-digest, compassionate, and motivating way. Instead of a detailed week-by-week look at your babyâs development, itâs all about you and how to help your pregnancy go as smoothly as possible. It assumes an intelligent, busy listener (who, somewhere inside, is shouting, âJust tell me what to do!â).
Every aspect of pregnant life is coveredâfrom the practical details (how to fly pregnant) to the complex issues (âWhat makes it postpartum depression?â). The book also covers that critical âfourth trimesterâââNursingâ and âHow to Feel Like Yourself Againââbecause once the baby is born, self-care typically goes out the window, and you really need someone to have your back. Its strong point of view and expertise come from gynecologist Adrienne Simone and obstetrician Jaqueline Worthâtwo renowned New York doctors dedicated to bringing patients the safest, calmest, least invasive pregnancies possible. The bookâs voiceâmotivating, supportive, realâcomes from Danielle Claro, coauthor of The New Health Rules.
