It's Your Pregnancy: Questions You Ask Yourself and Are Afraid to Ask Your Obstetrician Book

Pregnancy is a time of great emotional and physical change that creates countless concerns and questions for the expectant mother. All too often, however, many of these questions go unanswered because patients are hesitant or afraid to ask their obstetricians.

It's Your Pregnancy is the modern woman's question-and-answer guide to every aspect of pregnancy and childbirth. Dr. Neils Lauersen, best-selling author of It's Your Body, provides explicit, reassuring answers to such shared questions and dilemmas as:

• Does amniocentesis hurt?
• Why didn't Demerol work for me?
• How would a mixture of drink and drugs at time of conception hurt my baby?
• Am I endangering the baby by having too many sonograms?
• How far into pregnancy can I have sex?
• Are vitamin supplements valuable during pregnancy?

Culled from years of office experience, telephone and personal interviews, as well as questionnaires, It's Your Pregnancy provides authoritative, sensitive and compassionate answers to a pregnant woman's most difficult and pressing questions.

Filled with up-to-date information, charts and prenatal photographs, It's Your Pregnancy is the modern woman's question-and-answer guide to every aspect of pregnancy and childbirth.
