Mom's Health Matters
Carrie CarterPaperback 2003-08-01
Publisher Description
Today a large proportion of moms take such good care of everyone and everything else that they have little time and energy left to care for their own health needs. Their needs get pushed to the back burner and often are not tended to until a big health problem finally arises. With a warm and supportive style, Dr. Carter reminds busy moms that taking time to focus on their own health needs is not selfish but actually is a wise investment in their families' well being. After all-mom's health matters too! This practical health information book provides quick access to what moms need to know and want to know about their health and presents countless practical tips to help moms improve their health. Dr. Carter complements previous MOPS books-which address and support the emotional health of mothers-by addressing the physical health, mental health, and long-term health needs of moms and offering practical solutions to meet those needs. Dr. Carter identifies twelve common health issues for moms and offers very practical guidance on how the mom-on-the-go can deal with each of them. In addition, a section at the end of the book features moms' most commonly asked health questions with answers. These questions will be obtained from a poll of a sample of MOPS moms, who will be posed the question: If you could ask any questions about your own health, what would they be? Mom's Health Matters is "just what the doctor ordered" to provide solid, practical, and up-to-date health information for busy moms and encourage them to make even little changes that will improve their health now and prevent disease later.
