welcome foreword
As chair of the Medical Advisory Panel — and a contributor to this publication — I am pleased to present this edition of You & Your Family. The medical experts of You & Your Family use our collective expertise to ensure that the content is credible, educational and based upon the lat- est scientifi c evidence. Our goal is to mix art and science, and
bring you information in a readable and visu- ally pleasing format. Pregnancy, childbirth and parenting can be joyous and rich, but at times overwhelming and frightening. We think that learning the basics of pregnancy physiology and the changes that you can expect in your body can tip the scales more toward the former. I hope that You & Your Family and www.
youandyourfamily.com will help you enjoy a truly healthy pregnancy.
Be well,
Hope Ricciotti, MD Chair, Medical Advisory Panel, You & Your Family
