Prenatal and Postnatal Care: A Woman-Centered Approach is a comprehensive resource for the care of the pregnant woman before and after birth. Ideal as a graduate text for newly-qualified adult nurses, family and women’s health practitioners, and midwives, the book can also be used as an in-depth reference for antenatal and postpartum care for those already in practice.
Beginning by outlining the physiological foundations of prenatal and postnatal care, and then presenting these at an advanced practice level, the book moves on to discuss preconception and prenatal care, the management of common health problems during pregnancy, and postnatal care. Each chapter includes quick-reference definitions of relevant terminology and statistics on current trends in prenatal and postnatal care, together with cultural considerations to offer comprehensive management of individual patient needs.
Written by experts in the field, Prenatal and Postnatal Care: A Woman-Centered Approach deftly combines the physiological foundation of prenatal and postnatal care with practical application for a comprehensive, holistic approach applicable to a variety of clinical settings.

One of my favorite books on my midwifery journey
One of my favorite books on my midwifery journey. It doesn’t go quite as in depth as texts such as Varney’s, but I’ve found that this is written in a very easy to understand manner and offers great resources throughout (endless assessment tools). And it is definitely woman-centered in it’s wording and considerations. Highly recommend!

Outstanding text!
This is an outstanding text for nurse practitioner (or midwife) students, it has everything you need to know about prenatal and postpartum care! There are lots of charts, illustrations, pictures, and boxes with essential practice information highlighted. It is very comprehensive and easy to navigate. Highly recommend!

Great for OB Class
Very informative and well written! One of the authors is an old professor of mine and I can almost hear her speak as I read through the text.

Not enough info, not enough management
Not the most clearly written book, not enough info on management, not good enough to be the only book for knowledge in FNP school on prenatal and postnatal.

Do not buy the ebook! The page numbers make no sense, do not match up to the print version. Makes it very difficult to read for school assignment.
