Dr Stoppard explains the latest obstetrical tests and procedures, and current medical practices in clear, jargon-free language, and uses case studies to focus on special needs and concerns before, during and after pregnancy. This comprehensive guide is fully illustrated throughout with more than 500 colour photographs, drawings, ultrasound scans, and charts.
