Getting Ready to Be a Mother - A Little Book of Information and Advice for the Young, Woman Who Is Looking Forward to Motherhood #233909

The young woman who is looking forward to motherhood is very often torn by sharply conflicting emotions. Her eagerness to have a baby and her happy anticipations may be dimmed by fears and misgivings, by superstitious and er roucous beliefs born of an ignorance that is little less than pathetic. A little information about physiological func tions and an explanation of some of the facts of mother hood prove to be very reassuring to the mystified, unin formed young woman. There is, too, the immeasurably important question of the expectant mother's personal hygiene — the general scheme of her living in such a way as to promote her own and her baby's welfare — concerning which the average young woman is almost wholly ignorant.
