MyMidwife.org

Birthing From Within
Childbirth classes don't "teach" how to have a baby-they're all about what other people do during your birth (hospital procedures, the stages of labor, what your partner can do). Birthing From Within helps you prepare for your own unique birth experience: what you might experience emotionally and physically. Some of the program's imagery may be out of your comfort zone, but if you sense that childbirth preparation should entail more than watching videos of other women give birth, first try the Birthing From Within book, then explore a class or find a mentor.
