- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really liked how this book cut to the chase and provided the most crucial information without a bunch of extra stuff to read. As a pregnant woman I'm busy enough with everything else I'm trying to do to get ready before my baby arrives! I do think it could be useful to pair this with another pregnancy book that has a bit more medical information (how big is my baby at x weeks, what symptoms can I expect to experience in the 5th month, etc.) but then that would make a total of two books - very manageable! This guide ensures you have handy information at your fingertips without having to lug around 40 different pregnancy books.
