Summary: childbirth without fear/wonderful experience!
Review: I read this book over 25 yrs ago,living in a small northern Michigan town there were no "prepaired childbirth" classes This was the best information avaible! I had no pain and no fear It was truly a wonderful experience. Even my husband didn't think I was in labor because I didn't act like the women in the movies! My daughters will soon be needing this book and alas I lent my copy to someone and never got it back I hope they will reprint this book and make it avaible to all women so they too may have a wonderfull delivery without drugs!

Summary: The Most Helpful & Wonderful Book to Have During Pregnancy!
Review: I used this book for all three of my pregnancies. It was the most enlightening, helpful wonderful book that I could have had. It was not only facinating, but it took the fear out of giving birth. It showed me that I had an active part in the birth process, that I was in control. It showed me what to expect, what was happening and why. It taught me what to do when and why. I have passed this book on to both of my daughters to use. One of my daughters is now pregnant again and has recently moved and misplaced the book. I am dying to get my hands on another copy of this book for her to review. This book is wonderful to use with each pregnancy because it walks you through the whole birth experience!

Summary: the most helpful book you'll ever read
Review: It's a shame this book is out of print because it is by far the best book on painless childbirth ever written. A recent segment on a news program talked of a doctor who has had similar success with hypnosis, but it's nothing new. Grantly Dick-Read should get the credit. If you're pregnant and you want an easy, painless childbirth, READ THIS BOOK.

Summary: Publishers, Please Reprint this Book
Review: What a shame this book is not available to all the young mothers-to-be. As a very young, new, about to be mother in 1955, I read this book and managed to go through my labor without any medication. I entered the hospital at 9AM, and delivered my first son six hours later. This book was absolutely the reason that I understood what was happening, and following the directions it suggested, was able to work with my body to make the experience an empowering one. Perhaps someone will be able to see that it is accessible to pregnant woman again.
