"Pregnancy -- unquestionably one of the most pro??? found, meaningful experiences of adulthood -- can reduce otherwise intelligent women to, well, babies. Pregnant women are told to avoid cold cuts, sushi, alcohol, and coffee without ever being told why these are forbidden. Rules for prenatal testing are similarly unexplained.
