“Recommended to me by a colleague and I am so grateful as I feel this book really contributed towards a very positive birth experience. Inspiring and positive throughout in an easy to read (and easy to carry around for reading on the commute) format. The tools are really simple common sense stuff, but I gained the confidence to use them effectively by reading the real life stories. I managed to stay calm and relaxed throughout my second birth after reading this book, having had a tricky experience first time round. No pain killers and no stitches, something worked for me on the day and I have to give this book a lot of the credit. Thanks Susanna Heli for providing the confidence I was seeking.”
