Reviews
When actress Jane Seymour and her husband, director-producer James Keach, found out they were having twins, they knew they were doubly blessed, but Seymour's previous pregnancies had not prepared her for being pregnant with twins, and she wants to share her experience and advice with other women. Two at a Time: Having Twins The Journey Through Pregnancy and Birth, which Seymour wrote with Pamela Patrick Novotny (The Joy of Twins) and which features a foreword by her obstetrician, Sheryl Ross, is a lovely, informative and affectionate look at what to expect each trimester, birthing options and the subsequent challenge of managing the needs of two babies. 16-page b&w photo insert.

"One baby is a miracle. To be given two at once is a gift beyond words," writes Seymour, already a successful children's author, in the introduction to her debut child-rearing book. The star of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman here gives a personal account of having twins at age 45. Best described as a diary of her pregnancy interwoven with advice and information on tests, ultrasounds, amniocentesis, exercise, and general dos and don'ts, this is not the story of an average mother's pregnancy (the star could afford special care, clothing, grooming, etc.). Yet her voice is compelling and reaches out to comfort and assist anyone expecting twins. Also, Seymour and coauthor Novotny's counsel is sound, with clear insets that answer leading concerns. (Novotny authored the library standby The Joy of Twins, written in a similar style.) A good choice for public libraries, given the popularity of the author and the paucity of useful books on twins.
