Description

The idea for the book comes from my involvement with couples, midwives and midwifery students for many years; who generously and courageously participated in my rather unconventional approach to childbirth education. From them I received honest feedback; participation in research studies and involvement in the establishing of support groups.  To a great extent, they were the ones teaching me what to teach the next couples.  They trusted me with their deepest hopes, fears and desires.  The trust and confidence of all these persons instilled in me the desire to write an unconventional guide to pregnancy, labour and birth.
