Library Journal starred review: "Using 250 diagnostic ultrasound images, Harvard radiology professors Doubilet and Carol B. Benson present a marvelous book charting the growth of babies in the womb. . . . The authors well explain the different types of ultrasound and their medical uses, especially the 3D images that show the baby’s outer surface and the 2D images revealing the internal development of organs. This virtual tour of a life in the making will attract future parents in droves." --Janet M. Schneider, James A. Haley Veterans’ Hospital, Tampa, FL Sciencenews.org: " . . . an accessible and captivating text that guides readers through 9 months of pregnancy." Average Rating:
 Rating: - A Great GiftThe minute I saw this book, I knew it would make a great present for my cousin who is 16 weeks pregnant with her first child. She was thrilled and soon her mother and others were looking over her shoulder at the wonderful images. It's amazing how much detail you can see through the ultrasounds when they are diagrammed and explained as clearly as they are in this book. Rating: - Wow--lots of real life images!If you want to know what you're baby looks like through different stages of your pregnancy, get this book! It really lets you know what your baby looks like and I thought it was awesome! I also liked another book just on pregnancy called You Know You're Pregnant When.
