Pregnancy can be a magical experience for a woman, full of joy and growing wonder as her baby develops. It can, also, be quite challenging! Fluctuating hormones, alarming body changes and ever-changing emotions can make pregnancy less "magic" and more "manic." Pregnancy is, also, the beginning of a marvellous new facet of life: motherhood. In this guide, Nurse Barb provides readers with a comprehensive guide to the changes, challenges and joys that are in store for them, as well as a guide to preparing for baby's arrival. Each chapter covers a different facet of pregnancy - from coming to grips with the prospect of motherhood to what to expect in each trimester. Nurse Barb has, also, incorporated a hospital packing list and kick count sheet to help new mothers prepare for delivery and track their baby's progress. A joyful, healthy pregnancy can be just a read away. Nurse Barb's Personal Guides are an extension of what Barb Dehn offers to her own patients: relatable information, easy-to-understand explanations and guidelines for navigating the often-turbulent waters of women's health.
