Find out how a green approach helps you to have a natural, comfortable and rewarding pregnancy, leading to a happy, healthy baby. This authoritative guide by health and childcare expert Claire Gillman will tell mothers-to-be all they need to know about having a safe, green pregnancy. The first chapter, 'Nurture and Care', is a practical guide to keeping yourself well during your pregnancy.

'Healthy Home/Office Environment' covers your baby's nursery and natural pregnancy clothing, plus green housekeeping and pollutants to avoid. 'Prenatal Care & Your Growing Baby' reviews how to choose a provider/caregiver, prenatal check-ups, screening and testing, and natural birth classes.
