Birthing Books
Going into birthing unprepared is a setup for unnecessary fear and pain. My method of getting prepared for something new is to read, read, read, read, read. These are the books I found helpful.
Natural & Home Birth
Natural birthing methods, pain coping techniques, home birth and water birth information.
Birthing Room
Pictures of the venue for the 'main event'.
Our Birth Story
All of the childbirth professionals that I spoke with suggested writing out the story of your birth experience soon after the event. Doing so helps with your emotional processing of this important rite of passage and leaves you with a special memento to look back on and share with your child in later years.
