Shaping Up During & After Pregnancy

For many women the wonderful experience of pregnancy and childbirth can be overshadowed by the the fear of losing their figures. Dr Stavia Blunt, mother of two young children, demonstrates that it is not difficult to regain a pre-pregnancy figure and even achieve a better one. First, the book familiarizes the reader with the major changes that take place in the mother's body and gives detailed advice on nutrition and diet. A series of specific exercises is then presented, aimed at repairing and strengthening particular muscle groups and "shaping up" the mother's body.
