Water Birth: Stories to Inspire and Inform was published by Lonely Scribe in January 2015.
In this inspirational collection of stories the reasons more and more women are choosing water birth become clear. The experiences of mums, dads, grandmothers, midwives, doctors, doulas and siblings sit alongside stories from some of the world's leading experts and pioneers in birth in water, including Janet Balaskas, Francoise Freedman, Michel Odent and Dianne Garland.
There are stories of home birth, birth centre and hospital birth; birth in the shower, the tub and the birth pool; stories of twins, breech birth, and VBAC; both keen and skeptical water birthers; a birth pool 'rebirth' after unplanned caesarean, and even stories told in the form of poetry and art.
Water Birth is a must-read book for anyone who wants a water birth, and is guaranteed to change the mind of anyone who doesn't!
Water Birth: Stories to Inspire and Inform follows the format of three previous titles published by Lonely Scribe – Breast Feeding, Home Birth, and Twin Birth: Stories to Inspire and Inform.
