Hello there!

Thank you for visiting...

Congratulations! You're pregnant! (Or are you a midwife?!)

We've got books for you whatever you are, whoever you are, and whatever you're planning to do in a few months' time... Read on and prepare for some interesting and extremely pleasant surprises. Together, we can make the world a better place.

Start clicking on links on the left to explore some key questions... As you'll see, on this website there's a section for pregnant women and a section for midwives (or other health care professionals). Click on the link that applies to you. Alternatively, click on links to books at the bottom of this page to find out more about the books or to buy a copy for yourself, or someone you know...
Countdown to Birth These books are about preparing for a normal birth, without any unnecessary drugs or interventions. All drugs and interventions have side effects and require management subsequently, for safety reasons. Of course, if drugs and interventions are used for sound medical reasons in the first place, that's fine. So often, though, women are presented with a choice. These books are written for women who decide in advance not to have any drugs or interventions unless they're really necessary. Making this choice is wise because research has repeatedly shown that the effects on babies of drugs and interventions used at the time of birth can be far-reaching. Besides, putting up with the pain of labour and birth usually results in far less pain overall.
