Presents practical, scientifically sound information on the 60 most important risk factors identified with prematurity & how to reduce them. Most women don't realize how much they can do to reduce their risks & improve the health of their unborn babies. Begins with a questionnaire to help you assess your personal risk factors for premature birth, & makes practical recommendations for reducing those risks that you can change. The program in this book is based on the author's 20 years of clinical experiences studying prematurity & on a national program in France that lowered the prematurity rate there by 32% in its first 10 years.
