Book Reviews of The Official Lamaze Guide: For a healthy Pregnancy & Birth

Book Review: Fantastic book!
Summary: 5 Stars

I picked up this book when I was around 9 weeks pregnant to understand exactly what Lamaze was and using it while giving birth. This book really helped me understand everything that was going to happen and it is part of the reason that I chose natural childbirth, and I would not have done anything differently. It has a lot of helpful & useful information, and was easy to understand.

Summary of The Official Lamaze Guide: For a healthy Pregnancy & Birth

The Official Lamaze Guide is the first and only official pregnancy and childbirth guide endorsed by Lamaze International, the leading childbirth education organization in North America. It presents childbearing as an elegant, simple, healthy process instead of an experience fraught with danger.

Written in plain English with a respectful, positive tone, this book presents: - How simply pregnancy and birth unfold when allowed to progress naturally - What can disrupt the natural course of birth - Information on maternity care to help readers choose a caregiver and birth site - Research evidence to help women distinguish fact from fiction in obstetrics - Practical strategies for communicating and negotiating with medical caregivers

This book encourages mothers to trust their ability to give birth without needless medical intervention. It's an excellent resource not only for Lamaze students, but all expectant parents who want a childbirth that reflects their informed choices and results in a healthy, happy, and fulfilling birth.
