kelsiecb's review against another edition
4.0
I would definitely recommend this book to any pregnant women who feel confident that there is more to birth than pain and suffering, and want to know how to get there for themselves. I love all the birth stories in this book, so wonderful to hear that many different women have all been able to have ecstatic birth experiences! I also appreciated all the practical tips, especially the mental and creative exercises.

seemed feasible until the contractions hit. know some say this is possible, but i went from 0-60 - i've heard talk about how some women prepare food and such while in the beginning stages of labor, but i never had that. i literally had what felt like a little cramp and 15 minutes later was biting on icy washcloths... also, never tried again - one and happily done. she's 7 now, lol...
