Customer Reviews

gread book, very informative

Unlike the previous reviewer, I loved this book. I read it to prepare for my first birth, and I was scared, very scared, before I opened the book. The book was very informative, I found it reassuring. I had a vaginal birth (definitely no preaching towards having a cesarean), and felt the book adequately prepared me to have realistic expectations of the birth process. I believe my birth and pregnancy experience went as described for average in the book, so the author knew what she was talking about. Bought two more copies for my pregnant friends, so they have a good guide to go by. I have no idea why the other person didn't like the book; I loved it and strongly recommend it, especially for first-time moms.
