Natural Childbirth
The Bradley Way

by Susan McCutcheon

Since the Bradley method was first introduced in 1970, a growing number of expectant parents have opted for natural childbirth, knowing that it's safer than medicated or surgical delivery. But where can parents-to-be go for information on how to have a successful Bradley birth? This book provides all the answers, offering sound advice on how to prepare physically for labor and what to expect during each of its stages..  Chapters include:

Nutrition: How Does Your Garden Grow?
Sexuality and Birthing
The Mechanics of Labor and Birthing

Getting Ready for Labor
The Six Needs of a Laboring Woman
The Emotional Map of Labor
