While Waiting/Mientras Esperas.

It's decent, straightforward, a resource for those who are less cerebral, as well as OK for those who just want to have a simple resource at hand. I do not specifically know the reading level, though. We hand it out in our New OB packet. (We have our own first, second and third trimester packets that we put together and give to our clients.)

You can add me to the long list of those who hate While Waiting. I specifically tell my clients NOT to buy it....on my Anti-Bibliography, as it were. And just to throw some fuel on the fire, I cannot stand the ACOG pamphlets. I find them esthetically unappealing, boring, laid out in a way that makes my eyes glaze over, and I feel that the reading level is too high. I wish I could convince our business manager to stop getting them.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
