Bumpology

£9.99

Will the shape of my bump tell me the sex of my child? Can eating curry really trigger labour? Why do newborns smell so good? From the moment she discovers she’s pregnant, every woman becomes obsessed with the life that’s developing inside her. Linda Geddes was no different, except that as a journalist writing for ‘New Scientist’, she had access to the most up-to-date scientific research. What began as a personal quest to find the truth behind headlines and information that didn’t patronise or confuse became a blog and is now this book.
