Tell it like it is, baby! Conception to birth --through the eyes of your unborn child

Motherly Way Enterprises announces the 2nd edition of "Countdown to a Miracle: The Making of Me" - the only daily pregnancy calendar written from the baby's point of view

Portland, OR-April 1, 2003 --Nearly 11,000 babies will be born today in the United States. Their 280-day journey-- from a single cell at conception to billions of cells when they emerge nine months later -- is as amazing as it is complicated. But just how does a single cell become a baby?
     Many new parents are looking for ways to understand and to connect with their unborn child without all the medical jargon that may overwhelm them. Countdown to a Miracle: The Making of Me" (2nd Edition, revised) by Julie B. Carr is a unique pregnancy countdown calendar that helps explain this miracle of creation in every-day terms. Written uniquely from the unborn childs point of view, it chronicles the amazing daily changes taking place to the baby from conception to birth. This calendar helps the mom-to-be, as well as the dad-to-be, discover intricate details like when the baby is the length and weight of a hot dog roll, when the heart begins to beat, when the eyes open... and 277 more days of developmental facts. Grandparents in particular find the book fascinating, as most of this information was not available to them during their own pregnancies.
     The second, updated edition includes a gift box and stickers to record your unborn babys first-time occurrences such as hiccups, kicks, and other memorable events, as well as reminders for those important prenatal appointments. .
     Countdown to a Miracle: The Making of Me" 2nd edition, revised (Motherly Way Enterprises, Inc., ISBN: 0-9671428-2-2 $14.95 286 pages) will be available just in time for Mothers Day in baby gift shops, bookstores, and other locations nationwide. Books can also be ordered directly at www.motherlyway.com or by calling toll free 877-MOMS-WAY.
