PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
With this volume, Bouchez (Getting Pregnant) aims to fill one of the few holes left in the ever-expanding pregnancy book category by giving instructions for pampering a woman heavy with child. She points out that as mothers"concentrate on doing everything for our baby, too often, it seems, we can begin to lost sight of ourselves." But a good way to have a happy, healthy pregnancy is to"be kind to yourself, stay in touch with who you are, and treat yourself with the loving care and respect that you deserve." To that end, Bouchez guides readers through treating the common complaints of pregnancy, maintaining a sense of style and being a"hot mamma," enjoying sex and more. Friendly"real life" and"mother knows best" sidebars offer down-to-earth advice; quotations from experts (like the editors of Natural Health and Good Housekeeping) lend an air of authority. This is, however, more than just a pampering book--it gives a reassuring sense of what a woman can expect from pregnancy and advice for taking wonderful care of herself through it all.
