Publisher's Summary

As featured on BBC Radio 2 and BBC Radio 5 Live Selected as one of the Independent’s 10 best pregnancy books for expectant parents.

Birth is a feminist issue. It’s the feminist issue nobody’s talking about.

For too long women have been told, ‘a healthy baby is all that matters’. This book dares to say women matter too.

Finally blasting the feminist spotlight into the labour ward, Milli Hill encourages women everywhere to stand and deliver, insisting that birth is no longer left off the list in discussions about female power, control and agency.

From the importance of birth plans to your human rights in childbirth, and including birth stories from women across the world, this call-to-arms will help you find your voice, take an active role in your choices, and change the way you think about childbirth.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Please read this book

I think all pregnant women and their partners would benefit from reading this book. I wish I had read it book before I had my children. Such an important topic about human rights.

Life-changing

I’m so glad I listened to this book! It really solidified my birth plan and helped me advocate for myself with my OB when he was not supportive of my wishes. Like we had such a powwow over my birth plan. I ended up switching to an underground midwife (as I had no other options through “the system”) and having the most wonderful empowering birth.
