Rating: ![4 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-4-0.gif) Summary: Pregnancy and childbirth info. Older book but still useful. Review: From the back cover: "For mothers and fathers who wish to take a more educated, active role in the birth of their child, _Getting Ready for childbirth_ is a superb guide to a happier, healthier, more family-centered experience. Written by three certified childbirth educators and based on Lamaze techniques of relaxation and exercise...."There are many helpful diagrams in this book and a good list of suggested reading. It was originally published in 1977 and revised in 1986. There is a tremendous lot of information here. Everything from the benefits of breastfeeding to how to tell the stages of labour. Should be on the bookshelf of every childbirth professional.
