Book Reviews of The Birth Book: Everything You Need to Know to Have a Safe and Satisfying Birth (Sears Parenting Library)
Book Review: Informative, but negative
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this book because I am on bedrest and cannot attend birthing classes. It includes a lot of information, but I found the overall tone to be very negative on the present-day birth practices. It was extremely opinionated, skewed heavily to the authors' experiences, which made me a little turned off.
