- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is one of the books foundational in helping us to finally have a natural birth our 5th time around!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A great overview of the Bradley method for birthing along with tips for any natural childbirth. The most important complaint is that this book hasn't been revised in a decade, so I couldn't trust many statements about the state of the medical industry. The last half of the book was also highly slated towards hospital births. But, I'll definitely be coming back to this book as a reference, and it's made me glad that I'll be taking the Bradley course to reinforce the exercises in this book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Keeping in case we need a refresher the next time.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Wow! What a very valuable book! This one has a TON of helpful information in this one... the pictures of graphic births and naked "hippy" couples are kind of scarey... took me a while to get motivated and read this, but I'm glad I did. 5 Stars for sure!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5great book. well written, with lots of evidence-based info. I like the sharing of real experiences, too.
