The Pregnancy Companion Review and Giveaway


Congrats!






It’s here!  They wrote it!  The only bad part is it was published after my last son was already born.  
I had several favorite books during my pregnancies.  One that gave me the medical and developmental information I craved, one that inspired me spiritually, and another that guided me in how to cover each step of my pregnancy in prayer.
But now there’s “The Pregnancy Companion.”  And it covers all three of those areas in one book!  Written by Jessica Wolstenholm and Dr. Heather Rupe this book is one I really would have loved to have had during my pregnancies.  It’s written to be read month by month with the perfect mix of medicine and faith.  It puts common fears in perspective like what the real chances of having a baby with Down syndrome is.  Did you know that even at the age of 45 your chances of having a baby that does not have Down syndrome is 94.8 percent!  And of course if your younger your chances of having a baby without  Down syndrome are even better.  Looking at the facts in black and white really helps put our irrational fears aside.
I love this book and can’t wait to give it to the first friend who gives me good news of a new little blessing entering their family!  Who will it be?
