A Guide for Expectant Mothers
Peter Boylan
 | Incredibly practical--answers all your questions, and very well put together
Gerry Ryan Show Highly readable--a wide-ranging and invaluable reference guide for parents-to-be Mothers and Babies Hooray for a book that tells expectant mothers everything they could possibly want to know! Books Ireland Highly recommended--should be in all Irish homes, next to the first aid book TV AM This brilliantly informative book by Dr Peter Boylan, a former Master of the National Maternity Hospital, has the added advantage of relating to the Irish experience so all the information is relevant and pertaining to best practice in this country. Covering everything from conception to the birth, including first person experiences from Irish mums and an exclusive Q & A section at the end of each chapter, Boylan's clear, concise and reassuring style makes this a must-have for every expectant mum.
