Trust Your BODY! Trust
Your BABY!
Childbirth Wisdom and Cesarean Prevention
Trust Your Body! Trust Your Baby! empowers women
to face the challenges, fears, and decisions involved in giving
birth today. Through anecdotal experiences, facts, figures,
and the contributions of well-known authors in the field,
this rich volume offers fresh approaches to the aggressive
procedures embraced by many doctors and women of child-bearing
age. The physical, psychological, and cultural implications
of cesarean sections are thoroughly examined. Also explored
are many time tested techniques such as visualization, massage,
and exercises that can reposition breech babies as well as
other invaluable hints for avoiding unnecessary cesarean sections.
Completing this unique work is a detailed discussion of associated
issues such as VBAC, the husband's role in childbirth, circumcision,
and the far-reaching effects natural delivery can have on
the baby's entire life. Appendices provide valuable information
about questions to ask your doctor, steps in forming a successful
birth plan, and sources for further guidance.
Through insightful education and an understanding that can
only come through experience, Henkart shows how every woman
possesses the ability to overcome the fear and uncertainty
commonly associated with birthing. When this ability is fully
realized, women can once again hold the key to making childbirth
the powerful, wondrous, life experience it is meant to be.
