This textbook follows the journey from pre-conception to the puerperium. Divided into six parts, it begins with foundational material before moving onto reproduction, embryology and fetal development. The central sections of the book consider maternal changes and adaptations during pregnancy, the intrapartum period, and the puerperium and transition from fetal to neonatal life. The book finishes with a section looking at lactation. Containing numerous full colour illustrations, each chapter includes application to practice boxes, “challenge” sections, and “interrupters” to help you consolidate their learning. The text is accompanied by a downloadable interactive workbook to complete as you read.
Written in a clear and accessible style, The Midwifery Anatomy and Physiology Textbook is an essential read for pre-registration midwifery students, studying at both BSc and MSc levels.
