Childbirth

www.BirthingtheFuture.com
Suzanne Arms’ website that says it all for me.

www.BirthingFromWithin.com
Women and families can use childbirth classes to discover their beliefs about birth, to express their fears and concerns, and to choose the perfect environment to be able to open safely and let the baby come out. Women already have the knowledge in their bodies to birth. When they pick the best environment and a practitioner that they trust, their body’s wisdom can do the rest. You can find a childbirth educator near you from this website, which also features a message board for parents.

Learn how to help your baby get lined up to come out easily!  Babies are like airplanes; take off is easier when the plane is lined up straight on the runway.
