Description
A groundbreaking analysis of the psychology of pregnancy, now in a second edition. The author identifies seven distinct areas where the most change and development occur during the nine months of pregnancy, based on her in-depth interviews with pregnant women. The original research on first-time mothers is presented along with information from the author's new research with mothers having second and subsequent children. The scholarly development of theory is intertwined with the "voices" of women describing the emotions experienced in pregnancy in their own words, making this a valuable resource for students, researchers, and clinicians in maternal-child health.
