The tall attorney's aura is clouded, and Annie can see that he's been suffering for some time. But all that's going to change, because two new people are going to come into his life. And Annie wonders who the lucky pair is going to be. Jake knows how things are supposed to be, and that doesn't include fertility clinic mix-ups or having fathered a child with a woman he's never met. And looking at the redhead who is the mother, Jake realizes he's missed out on something spectacular. But the woman believes her grandfather talks to her through roadside billboards! Still, he asks himself, is that any stranger than his sudden compulsion to woo her? Everyone knows how things are supposed to be-first comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby in the baby carriage. Maybe this time, things are going to happen a little differently.

    In The New Rules of Pregnancy, two leading OB-GYNs guide you, the modern pregnant woman, through all aspects of pregnant life in an easy-to-digest, compassionate, and motivating way. Instead of a detailed week-by-week look at your baby’s development, it’s all about you, and how to help your pregnancy go as smoothly as possible. It assumes an intelligent, busy reader (who, somewhere inside, is shouting, “Just tell me what to do!”). Every aspect of pregnant life is covered—from the practical details (how to fly pregnant) to the complex issues (“What makes it postpartum depression?”). The book also covers that critical “fourth trimester”—“Nursing” and “How to Feel Like Yourself Again”—because once the baby is born, self-care typically goes out the window, and you really need someone to have your back. Its strong point of view and expertise come from gynecologist Adrienne Simone and obstetrician Jaqueline Worth—two renowned New York doctors dedicated to bringing patients the safest, calmest, least invasive pregnancies possible. The book’s voice—motivating, supportive, real—comes from Danielle Claro, coauthor of The New Health Rules.
