Summary: Pictures are breathtaking
Review: This book is full of simply amazing photographs of the unborn embryo and fetus. The information is elementary and the text is dry, but I would highly recommend it for the breath-taking photographs.

Summary: excellent book
Review: This book is like a bible of life: you feel as you are holding a magic kee to life secrets and wonders. The photos and the text are breathtaking as you learn about making a Life throug it's erliest stage to the final - baby. Pictures of human sex hormones in crystalline form, cervix (called "gateway to life"), interior of the Fallopian tube, sperms on their way to the ovum (different stages) were expecially new and wonderful to me, the photos of babies are no less than art. Everybody should have this book - to learn more about ourselves, to learn to respect ourselves as a pure miracle! But it is really essential during pregnancy - I'm very sorry I haven't bought it when I was pregnant because it contains all answers except ones like: which daiper or rubber teat to use or how to dress your baby or how to breastfeed her etc. - most of these things you learn simultaneously.

Summary: A Must Have
Review: This book is so amazing! The photographs are beautiful, the information is very straight-forward and factual. The book follows the journey from conception to birth with glorious color photos. I loved that it was very chronologically factual and positive without really getting into all the frightening "what ifs" of pregnancy which so many other books seem to cover in great detail. It was wonderful to read something that is purely celebratory of pregnancy, which this book is. I think every pregnant family should have this, its one you'll want to keep long after your children are born!

Summary: A beautiful marriage of science and art
Review: This book was recommended to me by my doctor when I learned I was pregnant with my first baby. The photographs are beautiful! It helped so much to be able to see what my baby might look like way before the first kicks started. I think it is really useful to get dads involved before the obvious signs of pregnancy appear to them. I'm now pregnant with my third baby and plan to use it to introduce my 6 and 3 year old to the childbirth process.

Summary: Excellent pictures!
Review: This is a fantastic book if you want to see what is going on inside of you throughout your pregnancy. The pictures are awesome. During my first pregnancy, the pictures educated me. During number 2 and 3, they educated my children. In addition, the narrative is very informative and provides a great deal of information. I also like We're Pregnant! and She's Having a Baby and I'm Having a Breakdown. Both true-to-life and entertaining. Great for both mom and dad to read.
