TIPS FOR PREGNANCY BOOKS
Mindful Birth – Nancy Bardacke (US)
'Mindful birth' applies the power of the increasingly well-known mindfulness training to pregnancy and childbirth. American obstetrician Nancy Bardacke provides insights and information about mindfulness, meditation techniques, yoga exercises and pain management. I would definitely recommend this book if you are a bit anxious about childbirth or are plagued by anxious thoughts during your pregnancy. Mindfulness helps you experience and appreciate your pregnancy and delivery in this moment.
Free Birth – Anna Myrte Korteweg
Despite the somewhat critical view of the author/doula on Dutch hospitals and obstetrics, this book provides a nice overview of what you can do and experience yourself in the field of natural birth. From a holistic obstetrician to a lotus birth; everything comes along.
Yoga for Pregnancy, Birth and Beyond – Francoise Freedman (UK in English)
This book, written by Birthlight UK founder and my teacher Francoise Freedman, contains step-by-step yoga poses, relaxation and breathing exercises specially adapted for each trimester of pregnancy.
Giving birth on its own – Wendy Schouten
I personally find part 3 of this book (The Golden Tips for a natural childbirth) very strong. Fortunately, this is a large part of the book (the earlier parts are accounts of her own experiences during her four deliveries).oetter.nl/
