Childbirth should be one of the most joyful experiences in a woman's life. All too frequently it is one of the most fearful. In Gayle Peterson a nationally recognized leader in the field of perinatal psychology prepares the mother-to-be for the most positive experience possible utilizing a childbirth preparation method based on medical research that shows emotional factors to be important in a healthy pregnancy and delivery. begins with a personal birth preparation inventory. It then addresses the mother's fears and concerns through exercises aimed at decreasing her anxiety and increasing her confidence and sense of well-being. Guided imagery, visualization and journal writing help the mother-to-be learn ways of yielding comfortably and safely into the entire childbirth process.

It sounded good but not for listening while driving

Too much time reading the worksheet. I wanted to like it but hearing the questions and each line read out loud made me stop early.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
