The Anxious Parent's Guide to Pregnancy by Gerard Dileo

Pregnancy walks hand-in-hand with anxiety, from the famous disturbing dreams many women have to the questioning of every medication a doctor prescribes. In this manual, an obstetrician-gynaecologist helps expectant parents to separate the truths from the myths and assess information, problems and medical situations calmly and rationally. Utilizing an "A-Factor" (anxiety factor) scale from 1 to 10, Dr DiLeo aims to help pregnant women assign the proper weight to particular situations. Dr DiLeo is the Obstetrician-Gynaecologist advisor to the parenting Web site BabyZone.com.
