Collected from government and private sources, this reference for the general reader covers all major aspects of pregnancy: from preconception family planning though to birth and the postpartum period. The typical processes of prenatal care, common medical tests, fetal development, labor, and perinatal care are detailed, distinguished from the precautions and complications engendered by women with preexisting medical concerns (e.g., AIDS, breast cancer, hypertension, and multiple pregnancies) and disorders of pregnancy.
