It's a little like knowing all the notes on a piano but not knowing how to put them together to play a beautiful song.
MATHEMATICS OF PREGNANCY shows you how to think about pregnancy, understand what really matters, and turn the information you already have into practical decisions.
Through one simple equation and three real-life-inspired clinical cases, this book teaches you how to identify important risks, make informed choices, and apply your knowledge step by step.
Because a healthy pregnancy is not about knowing everything. It's about knowing what matters and what to do with it.
MATHEMATICS OF PREGNANCY is written for first-time mothers, young mums, first-time dads, expecting parents, and couples planning their first baby.
Whether you are preparing for your first pregnancy, navigating the three trimesters, or getting ready for childbirth and newborn care, this book helps you make sense of the information around you. From pregnancy nutrition and prenatal care to gestational diabetes, high blood pressure, and other pregnancy complications, it shows you how to recognise what matters and make sensible decisions.
Written by Australian family doctor Dr Arun Maji, this is not another long list of things you must do during pregnancy. It is a simple, practical guide to thinking clearly, understanding risks, and giving your baby the best possible start in life.
