Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 448 pages. The New Zealand Pregnancy Book has been used by ma ny thousands of parents since the first edition was published in 1991. The third edition has been comprehensively rewritten by GP author Sue Pullon, along with midwife Cheryl Benn. New emphasis i s placed on matters such as: the range of birth options; midwife care; the role of fathers; testing in pregnancy; antenatal care; fertility support; the first months of a baby's life; breastfeedi ng; practical matters such as nappy options and shopping lists. A Maori perspective is provided by midwife Hope Tupara and researc her Donna Cormack. The experience of other cultures is also prese nted. In personal stories, ordinary New Zealanders speak movingly of their experiences: pregnancy, home birth and hospital birth, disability, cot death, living with a new baby, choosing between h igh tech and natural birth, etc. Readers will find here the real accounts that will help them to understand the great range of exp erience in pregnancy, birth and early parenthood. Full colour pho tography by Daniel Allen also records this range. Allen's birth s equences (shot both in hospital and at home) offer superb informa tion for parents-to-be (and medical students). An exercise series has been developed with the assistance of experienced physiother apist Yvonne Ferguson. Nappy-changing, baby equipment, breastfeed ing and bathing have all been brilliantly photographed. Most powe rful of all are Allen's images of people willing to share this mo mentous experience - newly pregnant women, others about to give b irth, a young father with twins, a Maori family, couples and wome n on their own. These are eloquent photographs of New Zealanders, from all cultures, at a time of great significance in their live s. Seller Inventory # 650b
