3.0 von 5 Sternen Good but needs updating, 31. Juli 2000

Von Ein Kunde

This is an informative book about natural childbirth, and if you don't already have a stock of such books, but all means buy it. However, the tone regarding hospitals and medical procedures is somewhat extreme and outdated. Those of us who are committed to natural childbirth don't need to read exaggerated criticisms of doctors. Take some of it with a pinch of salt and question your doctor carefully. Hospital classes are not all designed to persuade women to conform to being given IVs, pitocin, drugs and episiotomies - in fact, my hospital class did the opposite. It's a shame that the author makes such sweeping generalisations about hospitals, as it tends to detract from the valid arguments that she makes. For example, I've not heard of anyone strapped to the table to give birth these days! It's time that this book was updated. Skip the exaggerated descriptions of hospitals and Lamaze, and read the book for the positive information about natural birth.

5.0 von 5 Sternen excellent guide for couples wanting a natural birth, 19. September 2000

Von Ein Kunde

i find the formatting of this book makes it an easy read. some pregnancy books i have read are overwhelming. the author takes the basic facts and makes them clear and simple, and i like the notations for the dads (birth partner) to zero in on. i noticed the dated photos but the birth process hasn't changed so i don't know why reviewers bother to mention it. i found her nutrition information to correlate with dr. tom brewer's studies on protein (author of "what every pregnant woman should know")and followed them in my pregnancy and did quite well. we found the relaxation information to be extremely helpful when we were in labor.

i wish that i had discovered this book (and taken a bradley class) when i was pregnant the first two times. it would've saved me from unnecessary interventions and provided me with the know-how to communicate with the doctors, and know that i had other alternatives in my births and didn't have to follow suit with routine procedures. this book has a very common sense approach and even though some people disagree with the author's statements regarding doctors because they didn't have a negative experience, i am glad that this information was in the book when i read it. if i had this information previously, i would've have had better birth experiences.

i highly recommend you put this book on your list. it really helps you to understand the importance of trusting your body's ability to give birth and how to manage your labor. bonus points for teaching our partners how to read our body signals, emotionally and physically! there really aren't books out there that are geared toward our partners (dads) helping us in labor. and this book really made a difference for us in our birth.

If you can invision the process of childbirth, you've conquered at least half the battle to a healthy and drugfree delivery. You will understand the process quite perfectly after you have read this book. From a husband's point of view, this book delivers a very clear picture of the childbirth process. Very clear, concise and informative. One rather irrelevant negative - I don't quite understand the title - ... The Bradley Way? Huh? ... It's the "natural way".
