5.0 out of 5 stars
childbirth without fear/wonderful experience!,
By mickie t (Gaylord ,Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Childbirth without fear: The original approach to natural childbirth (Hardcover)
I read this book over 25 yrs ago,living in a small northern Michigan town there were no "prepaired childbirth" classes This was the best information avaible! I had no pain and no fear It was truly a wonderful experience. Even my husband didn't think I was in labor because I didn't act like the women in the movies! My daughters will soon be needing this book and alas I lent my copy to someone and never got it back I hope they will reprint this book and make it avaible to all women so they too may have a wonderfull delivery without drugs!

5.0 out of 5 stars
the most helpful book you'll ever read,
By Cindy S. Symington (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Childbirth without fear: The original approach to natural childbirth (Hardcover)
It's a shame this book is out of print because it is by far the best book on painless childbirth ever written. A recent segment on a news program talked of a doctor who has had similar success with hypnosis, but it's nothing new. Grantly Dick-Read should get the credit. If you're pregnant and you want an easy, painless childbirth, READ THIS BOOK.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A must have.,
By barbara fitzgerald (Maineville, Ohio USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Childbirth Without Fear: The Original Approach to Natural Childbirth (Mass Market Paperback)
What a shame this book is not available to all the young mothers-to-be. As a very young, new, about to be mother in 1955, I read this book and managed to go through my labor without any medication. I entered the hospital at 9AM, and delivered my first son six hours later. This book was absolutely the reason that I understood what was happening, and following the directions it suggested, was able to work with my body to make the experience an empowering one. Perhaps someone will be able to see that it is accessible to pregnant woman again.
