This book is based on family-centered maternity and childcare. It is a thorough education about conception, pregnancy birth and new parenthood--a necessity to develop the confidence needed for a comfortable, natural birth. It includes everything a person needs to know to prepare for childbirth (with a strong focus on nutrition prior to and within the first few months), from pre-conceptual health through the first months of live of a newborn, including extensive, accurate information to enable the mother to breastfeed with ease, and for those around the mother-to-be and those who will be attending her. The psychological aspects of childbearing are exceptional in this book. A special section is written for the father-to-be, and includes the physical and emotional aspects of childbearing. The exercises were designed to show the actions needed to be performed by the body, utilizing Timothy Piatt, who was adept at diagramming body movement.

The book is accurate, and humorous, with an thorough glossary and appendix.

The book is now in revision by the author, Carol J. Hinkley Thompson, due to requests. Her email address is Lorac657@gmail.com.
