This book guided me through my pregnancy and is the only pregnancy book I recommend to my friends. The author synthesizes the current state of research on all the major pregnancy and childbirth health-related topics and presents the evidence, leaving the reader to make decisions. Most pregnancy books give advice based on little more than the whims of authors and doctors (who are fallible like everyone else!), rather than actual research. Many books also take a somewhat paternalistic or infantilizing tone (I'm looking at you, What To Expect -- the worst pregnancy book ever). Expecting Better is readable, clear, and intelligent. I hope you read it. And good luck with your pregnancy! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #7,878 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #79 in Health, Fitness & Nutrition #90 in Family & Relationships #93 in Healthy Living & Wellness | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 11,405 Reviews | ## Images ![- EXPECTING BETTER: WHY THE CONVENTIONAL PREGNANCY WISDOM IS WRONG AND WHAT YOU REALLY NEED TO KNOW - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71CyYa2nr0L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thoughtful book *by R***U on 8 April 2023* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best pregnancy book *by K***S on 12 May 2019* I am a maternal and child health researcher with a PhD in public health.

I hope you read it. And good luck with your pregnancy! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book if you like and know maths *by C***I on 22 February 2016* A very very interesting book if you're a geek (I am). And a great go-to if you need information quickly, but reads like a fast-paced, chatty systematic review. Liked it for the most part but I would only recommend it for the numbers-oriented people out there. There is no interpretation offered (in all fairness the book does not claim it does), but if information is comforting and you can't calculate probabilities, this is probably not for you. Does not reflect on the possible effect of race - much research is done on white women while I am not. ## Frequently Bought Together - Expecting Better - Cribsheet: A Data-Driven Guide to Better, More Relaxed Parenting, from Birth to Preschool (The ParentData Series) - What to Expect When You're Expecting: (Updated in 2024) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/228568406-expecting-better-why-the-conventional-pregnancy-wisdom-is-wrong-what](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/228568406-expecting-better-why-the-conventional-pregnancy-wisdom-is-wrong-what) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
