Publisher's Synopsis
NOT FOR YOUTH. This is the version appropriate for male readers. It does not include several sections of graphic detail that the original version discusses. However it maintains the integrity of the original work. In this book of memoirs Bridget A.B. Halfaker documents her real-life experience of conception, pregnancy, and birth. She delves into her ideals for the soon-to-be child; including what birthing techniques to use, where to live, and how to discipline. She details her physical and emotional symptoms- of which there are many! Along her journey she confronts several demons from her past, attempting to better herself in order to create a happy and healthy environment for her baby. From family and childhood, to the unwanted baby advice strangers on the street give, Bridget explores all aspects of growing a human being.
