Customer Reviews

Waste of time & money
I could not have been more disappointed in this stupid stupid book. I purchased it during my first trimester and could not believe how worthless it was. Essentially, the book's mantra is "follow the food pyramid." What to eat in the second trimester? "Follow the food pyramid!" What to eat post-partum? "Follow the food pyramid!" They could have simply printed a one-sentence flashcard rather than a book. The book lacked detail and cohesion. It was poorly written and simply annoying. Any single issue of any pregnancy magazine can give you every bit of information offered in this useless book.

I agree with the review below.
Don't waste your money. My book will immediately be placed in the Goodwill sack.
