A reference book for all new moms and dads
A very comprehensive, detailed guide that I'd say covers all the basic aspects of pregnancy.
I really appreciated the professional style, objective but absolutely clear and understandable to everyone.
One aspect that I think is crucial in audiobooks, and absolutely crucial for me, is the narration.
The narration in this book is very enjoyable and perfect, from a technical point of view.
Ultimately, I think this guide is an important reference book for all new moms and dads.

A must-have when pregnant
A must-have when your pregnant
This book is a must-have for expectant mothers. The Author recognizes that pregnancy and motherhood can be overwhelming journeys with lots of questions and uncertainties. Elizabeth Benson covers the highs and the lows. I feel more confident having so much information at my fingertips.
All the practical stuff is covered, even down to how to prepare if you don’t make it out of the house and have to deliver in place.
It also addresses emotional problems and mood swings during pregnancy (usually not addressed even at hospital visits) as well as postpartum depression and baby blues.
I can’t recommend this book highly enough.

Excellent for Wedding Shower Gift or Father's Day!
A great book for new mothers. If you’re a new mother, you’ll appreciate the detail the author has gone to great lengths to provide. I found that the book went over many things that other books overlook. If you’re a first-time dad, this is a great book to get and to read with the new mom. It’s a great baby shower gift for new parents as well. I really liked the section that discussed the changes the women can expect throughout the pregnancy.

The Author leaves nothing out
The author leaves nothing out. While covering a range of complex medical topics, the book remained very easy to understand.
What I liked about it was that it was not sentimental and full of the Author's own personal experiences. Physical, emotional, and psychological issues were covered in addition to practical advice on hospital visits, exercise, and diet. What stood out for me was the section on birthing choices and the value of a birthing partner. I found the book educational and insightful. I also feel prepared for any eventuality.
The narration was easy to listen to. I would recommend this book to any expectant parent.

Great value!
I absolutely loved this audiobook! The author did an incredible job of covering a wide range of complex medical topics while still keeping it incredibly easy to understand. What really impressed me was that it wasn't filled with sentimental anecdotes or the author's personal experiences, which made it feel more informative and less biased. It covered everything from physical and emotional issues to psychological aspects, and even included practical advice on hospital visits, exercise, and diet. One section that really stood out to me was the chapter on birthing choices and the importance of having a birthing partner. It was both educational and insightful, leaving me feeling well-prepared for any situation. The narration was also a delight to listen to, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this audiobook to any expectant parent out there!

Holistic approach
What sets this book apart is its holistic approach. It not only focuses on the physical aspects of pregnancy but also delves into the emotional and relational dynamics. It offers guidance on navigating work responsibilities, managing the changing relationship with a partner, and fostering a positive birth experience. These insights are invaluable for first-time mothers and their support networks, as they help foster understanding and empathy while preparing for the beautiful and challenging moments that lie ahead.

Everything you need to know!
I initially purchased the eBook edition of this wonderful book and thought it would be a good listen as well to really familiarise myself without all the information. I certainly wasn't disappointed! Just like the book, I thoroughly enjoyed this listen which provided clear and invaluable tips to navigate pregnancy. It is such a comforting guide, an amazing tool to have at hand in order to appease my worries and know that I am doing all the right things. No doubt the perfect companion for any expecting mom!

So Helpful!
This book is like the friendly, knowledgeable big sister every first-time mom-to-be needs! It is a gem packed with practical advice, reassuring guidance, and all the must-knows of pregnancy.
The narration is warm and engaging, making it feel like you're having a cozy chat with a friend who's been through it all. It's not just the medical stuff (which is explained super clearly, by the way), but also those little day-to-day changes and challenges that no one really talks about.
What I loved the most was the mix of professional advice with real-life experiences. It covers everything from the early signs of pregnancy to preparing for birth, and does so in a way that's thorough but not overwhelming. The tips on dealing with morning sickness, preparing for doctor visits, and even picking out baby gear were particularly helpful!
