5.0 out of 5 stars Gentle Birth Options made me a believer., 6 Jul 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Gentle Birth Choices: A Guide to Making Informed Decisions (Paperback)

This book was riveting from beginning to end. As I am preparing for my first child, I've begun the process of learning about what's to come. This book not only informed me, it turned me into a believer. It affirmed intuitive feelings I already had about the way birth should be. Now instead of thinking that women who birth in water are wierdos - I now plan to have a water birth! What a turn-around... Thank you Barbara Harper!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great if you're not sure about a hospital birth, 27 Sep 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Gentle Birth Choices: A Guide to Making Informed Decisions (Paperback)

I first read this book while I was still at peace with the idea of a hospital birth. At that time, I thought it was a good book but quite a tough read. Then when my personal circumstances changed, I began to question hospital birth. This book was invaluable in helping me switch to a birth center, ultimately experiencing a beautiful, gentle birth in water.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent information on natural options, beautiful photos., 2 Dec 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Gentle Birth Choices: A Guide to Making Informed Decisions (Paperback)

Gentle Birth Choices is a wonderful book to read whether you have already decided to birth naturally, or you are considering it. Even if you have decided to use medication, the material is so informative, it may be an educational experience for you. The information provided on birthing "myths" is extremely helpful to women given that all too often we are provided only one side of the story when dealing with the medical profession. The photographs are also so gorgeous. They show women birthing in all different settings. The photos show how birth can look when women trust nature and their bodies. I would recommend this book to all pregnant women so they can see that there are options to hospitals and medical procedures.
