New Active Birth by Janet Balaskas
New Active Birth will help you and your partner prepare for and experience an Active Birth. Naturally, all the world over, women have chosen to walk, stand, squat, lie -- to move their bodies freely and actively to find the most comfortable positions for labour and birth. It is only we in the west who have the extraordinary notion that a woman should lie on her back in a position that defies the laws of nature and gravity. With this book you can learn to develop all your body's resources to deal with the instinctive experience of childbirth. It is also for partners, teachers, midwives and everyone involved, to help mothers get up off the delivery table and to bring back some of the common sense which has been overlooked by obstetrics.
