I read this book because I wasn't sure what method of childbirth I wanted to go for. And after reading it, I must say that Lamaze is NOT for me. I still finished reading this one though and I'm glad that I did. When you get past the "Doctors-Are-The-Anti-Christ-And-Midwives-Are-Where-It's-At" attitude, it does offer a lot of valuable information on childbirth and the whole hospital process. Even though Lamaze isn't for you, I'd still recommend you picking this one up as a good source of information. ( )

(2nd Edition) To my seven grandaughters: Nora, Mary Brigid, Margaret, Catherine, and Claire Gibbons, and Margaret and Ellen Lothian. When it is time to birth their babies, I am hoping they will not need to read this book. They will know from their wise, confident mothers about birth and will trust, simply and easily, their own power and give birth. -J.L.
(2nd Edition) To Raymond, Anna, Rocky, and Jesse, who have midwifed me as friend, partner, and mother, and to lovely Mae, who made me a grandmother. -C.D.
