| Summary |
"The Prospective Mother, a Handbook for Women During Pregnancy" by J. Morris Slemons is a scientific publication likely written in the early 20th century. This handbook serves as a comprehensive guide for women undergoing pregnancy, providing detailed information on the physiological changes, signs of pregnancy, and the crucial importance of medical supervision during this period. At the start of the book, Slemons emphasizes the necessity for expectant mothers to seek competent medical care throughout their pregnancy to prevent serious complications. He outlines various signs of pregnancy, categorizing them as positive, probable, and presumptive, and discusses the significance of recognizing these signs for both the mother's health and the successful outcome of childbirth. The opening portion sets the tone for a medical yet accessible understanding of pregnancy, aiming to empower women through knowledge while stressing the importance of professional healthcare involvement.
