Out of the several books we've read during my pregnancy, this one has meant the most to us. It was especially comforting in the early weeks when nothing noticeable (except tiredness and nausea) was happening. It told me what day the heart started beating, what day the arms and legs budded and what day movement started and so on. It made me feel like I was part of the growth going on in there even before I felt or saw it. Reading what is happening to the baby that day is an exciting way to make the miracle tangible even before you're showing and especially comforting when the symptoms are getting difficult. It's a MUST HAVE for all pregnant families.
