This fourth edition introduces a revolutionary, nutritionally based prenatal program tailored for women expecting multiples, now updated with new diet and exercise recommendations for postpartum care and twenty-five new recipes. If you're expecting more than one baby, congratulations! This essential guide is both effective and encouraging, addressing the full spectrum of emotions you may be feeling—joy, fear, confusion, and excitement—intensified by the unique experience of carrying multiples. Dr. Barbara Luke, an expert in prenatal care for multiples, presents a practical nutrition-based program designed to promote health for both you and your babies. Women who follow this program experience significantly fewer complications during pregnancy, with their babies weighing 20 to 35 percent more than average for twins, triplets, or quads. Key topics include finding a qualified maternal/fetal medicine specialist, dietary guidelines for maximizing birthweight, safe exercise limits, negotiating maternity leave, reducing pregnancy complication risks, recognizing preterm labor signs, and understanding what to expect during and after delivery. Additionally, it covers feeding and caring for your newborns and tips for getting back into shape post-delivery.
