What to Expect When You’re Expecting. You may quickly acquire multiple copies, thrust at you by well-meaning relatives, coworkers, and the like. Despite the fact that it was first published in 1984 and has a cover that flouts the vibrant, graphic minimalism of books in our decade (opting to stick with ‘’), this is the baby-growing bible, one soon-to-be new moms grab any time they feel a foreign twinge in their bellies at 3 a.m.
or work themselves into an anxious knot before an ob-gyn appointment. It’s also one of the things you’ll be most excited to never see again once you’re . (A shelf in my town’s buckles under the weight of cast-off copies.) I’ve tried to pinpoint why I and many friends have a love/hate relationship with this book and its equally ubiquitous counterparts.
I don’t take issue with the content. Quite the opposite–that detailed information got me through many stressful times during my three pregnancies. (In part because having a printed book to trust prevented death-spiral Googling.) I think part of the problem is the know-it-all titles.
If there’s one top lesson I have taken away from pregnancy, childbirth, and parenthood, it is this: expect nothing. You can expect away, read everything, hope, and ruminate, but more often than not, things will turn out totally different than what you pictured. Pregnant women everywhere will experience surprises, no matter how much they prepare. Before labor, you can practice bouncing on a ball and pacing and doing squats to help the baby drop, but it’ll turn out that the hospital has a policy where you have to stay in bed hooked up to an IV, and the baby won’t drop and will end up being pulled out via forceps (true story).
