THE EXPECTANT MOTHER
By all odds the nearest to a mir
acle that we perform is the re
production of our race. I cap not
think of, anything more wonderful
than the art of caring for the
young mother. The advice given
in this letter is of the utmost im
portance. The:'e is nothing more natural
than that the healthy young wife
should bear children. ' It is a per
fectly natural process, and need
not cause the least damage when
intelligently managed.
There Is a great wave of dread
in the country dread of the baby,
the young mother pictures herself
as the victim of all sorts of acci
dents; now here is my first ad
vice: do not ask your neighbor's
opinion of child-bearing; she may
have been subject to neglect, or, in
deed, cruel treatment; she may not
have had a careful physician; she

THE FAMILY
DOCTOR
may not have been a healthy wo
man to begin with. The way for
you to do when you suspect preg
nancy is to consult the best phy
sician you know, get the one that
most women recommend. Then,
keep in close touch with him that
he may guide your case to a hap
py termination.
My chief advice in this letter is,
be advised by your physician and
not by your friends and neighbors.
This is highly important.
The avoidance of bearing chil
dren for economy's sake is poor
policy; no industrious young couple
should have fewer than two chil
dren. See your psyhician at least
every month ; have him examine the
urine and keep the bowels and kid
neys acting normally.
The young mother makes a
healthier woman than the young
wife who avoids pregnancy. It is
woman's mission to bear children
the highest privilege on earth.
