Congratulations! Becoming a mother is one of the most exciting times in a woman’s life, but it can also be a time of uncertainty and worry. Having pregnancy information quickly available any time of the day or night is the first step in keeping yourself and your baby healthy.

Over the last 22 years of working with Mothers as an OB/GYN nurse practitioner, I have answered thousands of questions from concerned mothers. Since writing Preparing for a Healthy Baby book 10 years ago, I have been able to help nurses and doctors around the nation answer those same questions for their own patients. Now, I want to share this healthy baby book with you knowing that it will help guide you through a healthy pregnancy and answer your many questions any time-even in the middle of the night.

What changes will my body go through during my pregnancy?
How is my baby growing month-to-month?
What substances are potentially dangerous to my baby and me?
When do I need to call my doctor?
What exercises are most helpful during pregnancy?
What problems can be treated safely at home?
What medications are OK to take during pregnancy?

Preparing for a Healthy Baby tackles all these tough questions and many more in a simple, easy to read, 112-page book. It’s the perfect size to keep on your bedside table or carry with you when you are on the go! Take a look inside Preparing for a Healthy Baby to find out about the changes and challenges of your pregnancy.

Universities, doctors’ offices, health departments, clinics and hospitals through out the country have used Preparing for a Healthy Baby for
more than 10 years. Now, Preparing for a Healthy Baby book is available directly to expectant mothers.
