All mothers-to-be need a pregnancy guide and there's finally one that caters to Indian women Mothers-to-be have always turned to their mothers and grandmothers for advice on pregnancy dos and don'ts. The blogging world and the Internet have also been a source of information for them. But now there's another guide that mothers-to-be can look up. Titled Passport To A Healthy Pregnancy, the book is written by renowned obstetrician-gynaecologist Dr. Gita Arjun and published by Westland Books. It is seen as India's first definitive guide for expectant parents, covers topics ranging from pre-conceptional counselling to demystifying pregnancy and debunking the many myths that surround it, to the care of the newborn itself. Dr. Gita Arjun says, "In my years of practising obstetrics, I have had the privilege of interacting with thousands of pregnant women. I have been allowed into their lives and have shared their joy, their tears, their deepest feelings, their hopes and their despair. The one thing that strikes me is the fact that no two women will react in the same way to different aspects of pregnancy. Every woman has her own take on her pregnancy."
