    Summary: 
    Details an alternative to Lamaze childbirth that includes a more natural breathing method and a totally unmedicated birth that many second-time parents prefer.
    This classic guide to an unmedicated childbirth has been fully revised for the twenty-first century. McCutcheon provides the tools to help readers make informed decisions that will help them avoid unnecessary induction and cesarean surgery. Exercises and nutrition to get your body ready for birthing are discussed, and a full explanation of all aspects of labor and birthing will help defuse fears and put you in control of this natural approach to childbirth. -- adapted from back cover.
