Pregnancy and Birth


MrJ bought me this book before we knew that I'm preggy. We got it from Kinokuniy4. Moi always wanted pregnancy books that are not too serious, not too detail like biology text books for first year medical student and not too thick like all akmal's pathology books. So I chose this book. Thank you habiby :*

And YES, this book is so far the most hilarious books I've ever read about pregnancy. It's so funny that you can re-read it all over again without getting bored and laugh at the same line tho you knew it already. Haha. Thinking about it pun boleh buat aku gelak guling2. Hahahah. The author is a Brit, and you know, Br1tish love making jokes bout themselves; wallaaaa - that's y the book is extremely hilarious.

Ok, this book if from 'Rough Guide To..' collection. There are many other books in this series.

Title: Rough Guide To Pregnancy and Birth
Author: Kaz Cooke

This is one of the reviews in amazon.co.uk. Aku malas nak tulis another review here since I totally agreed with what they hv to say about the book.



What I love about this book is the fact you're really getting two books in
one. On the one hand, you've got the story of a woman going from conception to
birth, with her thoughts, feelings and concerns,(her diary from week to week)
which makes a humourous and touching read. On the other, you've got a factual
reference; researched to include the latest advice from UK medical
professionals.

The fact that this book really is funny meant that it's the only
pregnancy book my hubby has managed to finish. And that's saying something -
he's not a keen reader. Within a few days of him starting this book, he was
really playing an active and more understanding role in our pregnancy.

So if you're looking for a compelling read that will really tell you
how it is, this book is a must.



Ha, there you go. MrJ hasnt read it yet tho. Hehe. If you're looking for a book that is fun and at the same time educate you what's going on week-by-week during the preggy period and assure you that being fat is normal, then this book is for you. Personally, I feel at home and at ease reading this book is mainly because the woman in the book went thru the same thing like me just b4 pregnancy - operation to remove cyst.


Will write more about other books later.
