Hall, Jennifer Gibb,

Women's health communication : high-risk pregnancy and premature birth narratives / Jennifer G. Hall. - 366 pages ; 23 cm

'Pregnancy Narratives' examines the stories of women who undergo complications during the reproductive process such as difficult conception, miscarriage, still birth, premature labor, and premature delivery. Hall calls attention to how the stories of pregnancy and birth that women hear prior to their pregnancy shape the narratives they later tell of their own traumatic experiences.
