Traducere de Ilinca Anghelescu O carte scrisă cu sinceritate și umor despre cea mai frumoasă și mai emoționantă experiență din viața unei femei. Daca ești însarcinată deja sau doar cochetezi cu ideea de a deveni mamă, această carte își va fi cea mai bună prietenă. Pentru că numai cea mai bună prietenă și-ar spune cât de mult te poate transforma, fizic și emoțional, experiența gravidității. Doar aici vei gasi acele informații trecute sub tăcere de medici și de alte ghiduri de sarcină, din falsă pudoare sau pur și simplu din incapacitatea de a le acorda importanța pe care o merită. Autoarea, Vicki Iovine, a născut patru copii în șase ani și a cunoscut cam toate dificultățile, dar și deliciile acestei experiențe de fiecare dată unice. Soluția ei: un pic de umor, foarte multă răbdare și infinită dragoste pentru ființa care prinde contur în tine.

Your mother buys you baby clothes. But who can give you the real skinny when you’re pregnant? Your girlfriends, of course—at least, the ones who’ve been through the exhilaration and exhaustion, the agony and ecstasy of pregnancy. Four-time delivery room veteran Vicki Iovine talks to you the way only a best friend can—in the book that will go the whole nine months for every mother-to-be. In this revised and updated edition, get the lowdown on all those little things that are too strange or embarrassing to ask, practical tips, and hilarious takes on everything pregnant. What really happens to your body—from morning sickness and gas to eating everything in sight—and what it’s like to go from being a babe to having one. The Many Moods of Pregnancy—why you’re so irritable/distracted/tired/lightheaded (or at least more than usual). Staying Stylish—You may be pregnant, but you can still be the fashionista you’ve always been (or at least you don’t have to look like a walking beachball)—wearing the hippest designers and proudly showing off your bump. Pregnancy is Down To a Science—from in vitro fertilization to scheduled c-sections, there are so many options, alternatives, and scientific tests to take that being pregnant can be downright confusing! And much more! For a reassuring voice or just a few good belly laughs, turn to this straight-talking guide on what to really expect when you’re expecting.
