Product Description

Association for Improvements in Maternity Services (AIMS) Journal vol 17 no 1 2005 p25

Waites' exploration of the available evidence is thorough, clearly presented and clearly evaluated making it easily accessible to non-medical people.

Product Description

This work on breech birth is for parents, obstetricians, midwives and all who come into contact with women carrying breech babies. It addresses the whole experience of breech from causes to turning techniques to the options for birth. It engages with the controversial debate on caesarean versus vaginal breech birth and provides a powerful critique of recent evidence which has led to an increase in caesarean section. The book encourages parents to make an informed choice about the birth they want. For professionals this book is an essential resource on breech, deepening knowledge on breech, encouraging a critical examination of their own approach to breech and improving the quality of care they are able to offer to parents of breech babies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely recommended, 6 Mar 2004

By	brendajc (England) - See all my reviews

This book gives a good coverage of the issues. The author is very objective and not trying to sell any particular approach as the best. The book makes clear that if your baby is breech you may have some tough choices ahead of you, and I appreciated the honesty of that. It tells you the pros and cons of the options and will enable you to have an informed discussion with your consultant. Also covers the emotional impact.

If you are given a breech diagnosis early in pregnancy then yes your baby may still turn around, but if not it's good to be prepared and understand your choices and I couldn't find any other book dedicated to this subject. Style of writing seems to be aimed at well-educated readers so it may not suit everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Breech Birth Bible, 24 Sep 2003

By A Customer

What a brilliant book. I bought it because I am expecting my first child who is currently in the breech position. The health care profeesional only had limited information, leaving me feeling very anxious. This book has answered all my questions and more, helping me to feel at ease with my situation. Thank-you so very much.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful exemplar for facilitating informed decision making, 24 May 2005

By A Customer

This is a fantastic book - a really thoughtful coverage of the subject. Quite dense and heavy going at times because of the thoroughness, but certainly not inaccessible.
