I was going to write another article on work and pregnancy today but I want to interrupt that train of thought with this report: Women’s Digest, a Florida-based magazine for women, just came out with a list of six books for moms-to-be.  I am thrilled because The Working Woman’s Pregnancy Book made it to the list with this review.

The Working Woman’s Pregnancy Book
By Marjorie Greenfield, MD
Yale University Press Health & Wellness

This book could easily be titled “Everything You Wanted to Know About Working and Being Pregnant that the Other Books Didn’t Tell You.” Written by an obstetrician who is also a mother, it is chocked-full of information useful to all mothers, not just for the corporate woman. There are interviews with a wide variety of working women such a FedEx courier, labor workers and even a governor. And as Greenfield acknowledges right up front, every pregnant woman is a working woman. She takes the reader through the life-changing process starting with a pre-pregnancy life survey and shares fundamental advice for every demographic, not just married heterosexual women. The Working Woman’s Pregnancy Book is an in-depth A+ resource guide.

They recommended the list as helpful for all moms–not just those having their first babies. Click here for the full list on the Women’s Digest website.
