BUMPIN': THE MODERN GUIDE TO PREGNANCY

A thoroughly modern guide to pregnancy for new parents - from conception through the newborn months and return to work

Bumpin' mixes the latest clinical research with practical advice from doulas, ob-gyns, midwives, therapists, lactation advisors, and pelvic floor therapists and a dash of personal experience to provide all the information you need without the detail you really don't. With the frank, funny warmth of a trusted friend, Leslie Schrock soothes anxiety with answers, and shares her less-than-perfect journey to motherhood.

What's inside:
• A trimester-by-trimester overview from conception through the postpartum period
• Common fertility issues and how to manage them
• Coping with pregnancy symptoms (and why they happen)
• Sections just for your partner
• Decisions you'll face, from choosing your care team to prenatal testing and childcare
• Advice for navigating parental leave and returning to work
• Movements and exercises designed to strengthen your pelvic floor
• How to build a good registry and the maternity clothes you really need
