The first book to truly focus solely on the birth of your baby (rather than pregnancy) and without a specific agenda. This is a comprehensive, everything-you-need-to-know guide to childbirth from leading Australian obstetrician and international researcher into safe childbirth, Professor Stephen Tong.
Most parents-to-be and their support people have little knowledge of what to expect in the birthing suite. Drawing on his extensive experience in the field, Professor Tong guides you through vital information to help prepare for a safe and happy birth day.
Accessible, engaging and explained in a simple and conversational style, the pages are packed with information and real life stories covering:
The stages of labour and birth
How different forms of pain relief, including epidurals, work
Induction of labour, ceasars and assisted birth
Monitoring of the baby and mother
Post childbirth recovery
Professor Tong carefully and simply breaks down the evidence and facts to provide you with everything you need to know to turn anxiety and trepidation about childbirth into confidence, empowerment and cherished, life-long memories. The Birth Book is a warm, wonderful and reassuring companion for birth.
