Expecting Better

Why the Conventional Pregnancy Wisdom is Wrong—And What You Really Need to Know

Author: Emily Oster
Narrator: Karen White

Pregnant women are often treated as if they were children, given long lists of items to avoid—alcohol, caffeine, sushi—without any real explanation from their doctors. They hear frightening and contradictory myths about everything from weight gain to sleeping on your back from friends and pregnancy books. Economist Emily Oster believes there is a better way. She reveals that the information given to pregnant women is sometimes wrong and almost always oversimplified, and she debunks a host of standard recommendations on everything from drinking to fetal testing. This practical guide helps expecting mothers know more so they can worry less.
