A positive birth experience will put you in a stronger position for your adventure into motherhood. "I am so glad I read this book before my birth. I didn't intend having a caesarean but when it happened I wasn't at all frightened and I fed 'S' in the recovery room. This book thoroughly demystified caesarean birth for me, it is a must read for anyone planning to have a baby and I will definitely be buying it for my friends." Vicki (35) "At long last pregnant women can get the unbiased and easily digestible information they need about caesareans. They can have useful discussions with their healthcare providers and make informed decisions about the birth of their baby" Bryan Beattie (MD FRCOG, Consultant in Fetal Medicine & Director of Innermost Secrets Ltd) "Before reading it I had never considered what might happen if I needed a caesarean. I feel far more confident about my next birth." Samantha (32) "This book should be required reading for professionals to enable them to respond to the needs of an increasingly informed group of women." Christa Greenacre (NCT teacher-retired)
