Book Summary:
Passport to a Healthy Pregnancy is a comprehensive and practical guide tailored for modern Indian couples. Authored by Dr. Gita Arjun—an eminent obstetrician-gynaecologist from Chennai with over four decades of experience—the book begins from pre‑conception and leads readers through all three trimesters, addressing tests, scans, fetal development, and possible complications with clarity and empathy.Richly illustrated and structured around real-life case histories, it dispels myths and old wives’ tales while emphasizing natural and science-based approaches to pregnancy, diet, and exercise.It also includes a dedicated chapter on the father’s role, encouraging active involvement from conception through delivery and postpartum—an approach Dr. Arjun pioneered in Indian obstetrics since the 1980s.After birth, the book continues into postpartum recovery, breastfeeding guidance, family planning, and early childcare, rounding off with trimester-specific checklists and personal note sections for parents-to-be.
