The Working Woman's Pregnancy Book

Dr. Marjorie Greenfield has been practicing and teaching Obstetrics and Gynecology for over twenty years, currently teaching at Case Western Reserve University. Having written extensively for drspock.com and Dr. Spock's Pregnancy Guide, Dr. Greenfield more recently published her book exclusively for pregnant working mothers, The Working Woman's Pregnancy Book. Based on Dr. Greenfield's personal experiences and numerous interviews with women who have worked while pregnant, balancing health and nutrition in pregnancy with the rigors and potential safety concerns of the workplace.


Dr. Greenfield and I recently spoke about the Return to Work Project and the invaluable support this simple gesture can convey to women enduring the difficult transition to working motherhood. Read her overview of the project on her blog.
