"Carrying On dives deep into science to clarify all of the open questions around pregnancy. Clair's writing is clear, personal, and relatable....Carrying On is an original concept that is well written, well researched, much needed, and offers indigenous and midwifery perspectives alongside the traditional 'science.'"
~Tina Cassidy, author of Birth: The Surprising History of How We Are Born

"This book is part-science, part-history, a dash of memoir, and it lives in the weeds. It’s nine chapters that follow some sort of rough chronological logic, but all stand in relative isolation (i.e., you could jump around, skip a chapter, or read in whatever order suits you) and dive into one key question or topic. For example: How has medicine (not) managed morning sickness over time? When did we start using obstetric ultrasound, and what is it doing for us? When the hell — and why — did prenatal weight gain recommendations gain any traction? What about exercise guidelines? "
