"In this cutting-edge work, neuropsychologist Dr. Susan Andrews shows why too much stress during pregnancy can increase the risk of childhood problems--and how you can stay in balance and boost your baby''s potential with simple, effective stress solutions. Pregnancy is a delicate time for you and your baby, and what your body experiences while you are expecting can affect your child for years to come. Emerging new evidence, for example, is now linking too much stress during pregnancy to a higher risk for childhood emotional, physical, and behavioral problems, including preterm birth, ADHD, and learning disabilities. In fact, as Stress Solutions for Pregnant Moms shows, managing stress could be just as important to your child''s health as avoiding smoking and alcohol while pregnant. Not all stress, of course, is bad. The problem comes when we fail to recognize that the buildup of pressure and tension is tipping us into a danger zone.
