9 Months to Go, 2nd Edition: What You Need to Know »

Dr. Joann Richichi, an obstetrician and mother, has written one of the most comprehensive books about what women, who are pregnant or women just thinking about it, need to know or expect during their pregnancy. Dr. Richichi's question-and-answer sections cover all those nagging concerns that we are afraid to voice: diet, bleeding, infections, and many others. And, after the birth, how we feel about it all...and our partners.
