Summary: Great Stories
Review: This books provides a nice range of different pregnancy stories and poems. I like that after each story/poem, it encourages writing topics. I have heard from many people that, during pregnancy, it is hard to write about the experiences- even for those who usually write. (I found this to be true myself.) Many of the stories seem to capture the rawness and emotion of pregnancy. A very interesting read. I have non-pregnant friends who have enjoyed reading this book also.

Summary: Beyond the "What To" and "How To" of Pregnancy
Review: This collection of funny, insightful and thoughtful essays on the journey to motherhood is a great way to prepare your spirit for transitioning from Independent Woman to MOTHER, a word that deserves to be in all caps. I have the great fortune to have an essay included in this book, but until recently I had not read the entire collection. It really feeds the spirit of the expectant woman, and takes her beyond the important how-to information that other books provide, to provide more thoughtful wisdom on what you've gotten yourself into! Not only is a great investment to add to your collection of books on pregnancy, but I think you'll pass it on to girlfriends to read, too.

Summary: Great gift book for expectant mommies!
Review: Whether you're pregnant yourself, looking for a gift book, or want to relive life as a pregnant woman, this is a wonderful book. Stories, poems and essays range from the contemplation of motherhood to the glory of a round belly. It's the first book I've seen for pregnant women, by pregnant women, about pregnant women and it's no holds barred: honest, inspiring, touching, real. Buy it, read it and pass it along.
