About this title

Synopsis

If you have:

• Miscarried
• Given birth prematurely
• Experienced a still birth

or would like to avoid these tragedies in the first place, you need to read How to Prevent Miscarriage and Other Crises of Pregnancy by Dr. Stefan Semchyshyn and Carol Colman. Dr. Semchyshyn is one of the only four hundred doctors in the United States certified in maternal-fetal medicine and has a remarkable 97.5 percent success rate for bringing healthy babies to term in his high-risk-pregnancy practice. In How to Prevent Miscarriage and Other Crises of Pregnancy, Dr. Semchyshyn looks at the causes of miscarriage and premature labor, and offers sound, state-of-the-art advice on treatment and prevention. He details how to monitor your pregnancy from conception to birth and outlines a homecare program and emergency procedures designed to prevent a small problem in your pregnancy from becoming a crisis. Dr. Semchyshyn also discusses exercise, nutrition, coping with a difficult pregnancy, and much more. This is an essential book for every woman who wants to have a healthy baby.

From Library Journal

With the help of journalist Colman, maternal-fetal medicine specialist Semchyshyn has written an easy-to-understand, in-depth book that addresses the often overlooked issue of miscarriage. While it's common for obstetricians to dismiss miscarriages as "nature's way" of ending a problem pregnancy, Semchyshyn has achieved an excellent success rate in bringing miscarriage-prone patients to full term. The book covers all causes of miscarriage, diagnostic procedures to detect them, and possible treatment plans. For women concerned about this issue, the book offers a great deal more information than is found in the standard pregnancy manuals. This should be added to all public library health collections.
