Praise for this book

"Coming from Dr. Ruth, this pregnancy adviser contains more about sex than many others, but with obstetrician-gynecologist Grunebaum as coauthor, it provides plenty of medical information, too. Sexual and medical information and advice are dispensed throughout, and clear line drawings illustrate the physiological stages of pregnancy as well as many recommended positions for sexual intercourse throughout pregnancy...Fine of its kind." -- Booklist
