Expectant parents are faced with a daunting array of choices to make about prenatal care, labor, and birth. In Gentle Birth Choices Barbara Harper, renowned childbirth advocate, nurse, midwife and mother of three, explains all the available choices and shows how to plan a truly meaningful, family-centered birth experience. She dispels the medical myths that so often shift control of birth away from women and reimagines birth without fear or violence and with minimal pain. Harper reveals that abundant range of gentle birth approaches, including:
* giving birth in an independent birth center, at home or in a hospital birthing room
* finding a primary caregiver who shares your philosophy of birth
* deciding how to best use current technologies
She also provides practical advice of couples wishing to explore options such as hiring a doula or laboring in water to avoid the unwanted effects of drugs and epidurals.
The DVD blends interviews with midwives and physicians and shows six actual births, including water birth, home birth, and vaginal birth. This book (in first edition without DVD) is also available in Spanish under the "Spanish Products" Doula Boutique category. Fulfills Birth Doula Certification Reading Requirement for Section 2.
