Drawing upon her 40-plus years of experience, Ina May Gaskin, the nation's leading midwife, shows the benefits and joys of physiological childbirth by showing women how to trust the ancient wisdom of their bodies for a healthy and fulfilling birthing experience.

Based upon the midwifery model of care that recognizes that spontaneous labor in healthy women cannot be improved upon, Ina May's Guide to Childbirth gives expectant mothers comprehensive information on everything from the all-important mind-body connection to how to give birth without technological intervention-as well as how to know when such intervention is necessary.

Filled with inspiring birth stories and practical advice, this invaluable resource includes:

  • Reducing the pain of labor without drugs and the amazing role that touch and free movement play.
  • What really happens during labor.
  • Orgasmic birth-testimonies from those who experienced it.
  • And much more...

Great book for humankind, too bad it sounds read by a robotic voice which does not match with the content.

Must be re-read

priceless info, especially for first time mothers. Return true feminine empowerment to the process of giving life instead of being treated like a sedated animal at the mercy of your keepers! The medical industry treats birth as a condition to be treated, and a business. This book will help you remember the true nature of what women were designed to do with our bodies.

The content is fine, but the narrator sounds like a robot and is very distracting.
