$29.95

Join Adam and Eve as they experience the birth of their child. Winner of Newsweek Magazine's prestigious "Editor's Choice" award, Nine Month Miracle is a wonderful way for the entire family to learn about conception, childbirth and everything in between.

This multimedia CD-ROM contains a wealth of helpful imagery and easy-to-understand information, including:

Dramatic in-body photography by world-renowned photographer Lennart Nilsson shows the developing baby, while Dr. Harper, Adam and Eve's "virtual obstetrician" explains the major developments each month.

Detailed, accurate animations provide incredible insight on how major organs and systems develop, as well as subjects like ultrasound and the stages of labor.

A glossary of terms and printable text references from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists supply in-depth information on important pregnancy topics including nutrition, exercise, testing for fetal development, use of alcohol and drugs during pregnancy and more.

Emily's New Sister, a special section for children ages 3-9, tells the story of a new baby through the eyes of 7-year old Emily. Cartoon animations explain tough questions like "Where Do Babies Come From?" and "How Does the Baby Come Out?"

Follow along month-by-month, learning what to expect as the baby develops. Some samples from each month include:

Conception
The magic of childbirth starts here. Witness first-hand the beginnings of the amazing journey toward a new life. Outstanding medical illustrations and animations will offer the whole family a wonderful glimpse into this remarkable process.

Month 1
You may not even know you are pregnant yet, but at one-quarter-inch, the developing baby already has a heart and structures that will quickly form the organs.

Month 2
Tiny fingers and toes are now visible. Major areas of the brain and peripheral nervous system have also formed. Not only are you eating a lot more, but the baby's needs for oxygen and nutrients have increased too.

Month 3
It's hard to believe that we all start out looking like this. Watch a baby's face form right before your eyes. Development of the face is a fascinating process in which dramatic changes take place in a short amount of time.

Month 4
Is it a boy or a girl? Just by looking, it might be hard to tell until the fourth month when the baby's sex organs develop. Discover what hormonal changes take place to determine the baby's gender.

Month 5
Ultrasound it's that time. Ever had one? Know of someone who might be having one? For most, ultrasounds are a big blur. But with a little knowledge and some practice, you can become an expert!

Month 6
Be careful the baby is listening. During the sixth month the baby begins to respond to its outside environment. Learn what sounds are natural sedatives and which ones can frighten an unborn baby. You'll also see twins form and learn why some are identical and some are fraternal.

Month 7
Your kids will be thoroughly entertained as they meet Emily, a seven-year-old who's about to become a big sister. Kids ages 3 and up will learn where babies come from, how big they are, and what makes it a girl or a boy. Includes educational activities along the way to make learning fun.

Month 8
Now the baby is preparing for the journey to the outside world. Luckily, the baby's skull is still soft allowing it to easily move through the birth canal. Learn more about the importance of "soft spots" and why they are critical during pregnancy.

Month 9
A miracle is born. And you can see the final stages in great detail. Experience the wonder of childbirth as you take a seat next to Adam and Eve on their journey to the hospital and the delivery room.
