Excellent- By: student midwife, 19 Sep 2008 This is an excellent book & well worth buying if you are a student midwifeSurviving the third year- By: Sarah Fl Edmundson, 15 May 2008 This guide has been really useful to me as i come to the end of my third year. Its a handy size so i can take it into placement without my bag causing me to pull a muscle! The infomationin the book is good for a quick reference when you need to double check something. The section on medical problems & early pregnancy abnormalities is useful to refer to especiallyin the community setting. The book has an appendix on normal valuesin pregnancy of biochemistry & haematology tests which again is useful reference guide whenin the antenatal clinic (community or hospital). Obviously this book does not have all the answers but it does give brief inforamtion on a wide range of topics which commonly occur. I would definately recommend this book to other students as well as qualified midwives.
