I have been asked for infomation on having a natural birth. Not sure where they will be birthing- I have suggested homebirth.
What infomation would you give?
I have a Kitzinger book (New Pregnancy and Birth Book)- it's a bit dated (10yrs), but better than other stuff out there. I've suggested "Gentle Birth, Gentle Mothering"...I have a few stats and studies on the use of syntocinion, epidurals, ARM and other interventions and what can happen when they are used.
I also recommended a doula or an independent midwife.
Um, what else...I think that's all I can up with...I know there is heaps more stuff. Anyway, she's asked for more info...any suggestions that I can pass on?
