Expecting Better, Emily Oster

Nonfiction: statistics and hard numbers about fertility, pregnancy, and childbirth. 

I'm going to keep this short, lest I gush too hard; this is an EXCELLENT resource, and I am so grateful to Dr Oster for putting it together.  She has my eternal gratitude, and this book has a prominent place on my bookshelf.

If you're satisfied that "Doctor knows best" then this won't be much use.  If, on the other hand, you're a paranoid overthinker who plans and plots and researches anything possible, this book is a wonderful assist.  

Here's hoping she does a sequel on infant care and the mommy wars.
