A few quotes from a book review of Showing: What Pregnancy Tells Us About Being Human. This reviewer gets into far more than just physical matters --
"...pregnancy looks a lot more like a clinical condition than a natural season of a woman’s life. In the standard prenatal care model, a pregnant woman becomes a patient."
She gets into spiritual matters --
"Even as a woman shapes the child growing within her, the joys and trials of pregnancy are shaping her, sanctifying her, and teaching her how to depend on others during this season of peculiar service."
Here's the book review.
