KidSource OnLine Book Review

This book was my guide during my pregnancy. I used this book constantly, as it helped me understand what was going on inside of me, how to take care of myself and my baby and what decisions I needed to make during my pregnancy. This is a practical, no-nonsense book; a great reference and a comforting guide.
