Very Helpful

I thought this book was great. It is organized so you can read mini chapters during short periods of time. I have a 2 1/2 year span between #1 and #2 and found this book very helpful.

excellent and complete for before and after

What is great about this book is that it covers pregnancy and the time after birth equally well. I wish that I had had some of the advice earlier, but the book would be worthwhile even for just the second half. It was especially helpful to have a guide to how to handle some of the really tough times we had with our 3 1/2 yr. old when the baby was about six months old. Highly recommended!

this is an essential book

I bought this book when we were thinking of getting pregnant again. I was really glad that I did, because the first time we tried I had an early miscarriage. The book gave me extremely helpful and compassionate advice about how to deal with this issue for myself and our child. We then went on to have a great next pregnancy and wonderful new baby and the rest of the book is really useful and helpful too!

thorough and helpful

This book covers just about everything you can think of about getting ready for another child. It really helped me think about it from the point of view of my first child, and it helped me make it all go much more smoothly than I had expected. I highly recommend it!
