Birth Matters: A Midwife's Manifesta (2011) - Plot & Excerpts

Ina May Gaskin not only details a beautiful appreciation of why maternity care in our country should be improved but has gathered copious amounts of statistics, facts, and evidence proving her points. She also has the credibility to back it up, being a midwife for many years with an abysmally low rate of cesarean section. The best part of all is she offers us redemption! She provides very concise and direct bullet points detailing certain policies which should be put into action throughout hospitals and other viable and tangible solutions! Breath-taking, refreshing, and drove the stake home on women's healthcare forever! If I was asked which book is the most important for people to read when facing pregnancy, this is it! I wish we could burn all the copies of What to Expect When You Are Expecting, because reading Ina May is so empowering and eye opening. I had a wonderful pregnancy, and my labor and birth were gentle, completely natural and unmedicated, and my baby is alert, healthy and thriving. I know great part of this is because I trusted the knowledge of midwifery through this book, amazing book!
