Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)PROS: Dr Shelley Binkley is an obstetrician who provides a great deal of very helpful information on pregnancy and the process of birth, sometimes utilizing really good photos... I found her approach to dicussing the information refreshingly easy to read and informative. She includes a large variety of pertinent information about different aspects of pregnancy and birth with a good inclusion of options. I recommend this book for pregnant moms wanting to learn more about whats going on with their body and the birth process. It is well laid out/ a quick easy reference.
CONS: She mixes in her own experiences occasionally which is sometimes good but as a health care professional.... not always a good thing. I feel options should be presented factually without opinion. Some of the good photos are too small to see detail. :( She discusses homebirth ... good :)...but clearly steers the reader away from that option. It just isn't my style of teaching. Let the reader decide with good information and education.
As a lactation professional, I do not recommend this book for breastfeeding information. All breastfeeding books can get outdated quickly. It is the interjection of personal opinion of breastfeeding management, sometimes not entirely correct that concerns me the most.
