Hello fellow birth and book lovers! Well, it's time to start our discussion!! Let me throw out an idea of where we can start...... What was a point that...
Well, I'll be honest it isn't an easy book to read. I think the whole "English" is a bit weird for me, some different names of things and such. I can totally...
Hi all! Well, first I thought that we'd been so quiet because of Easter and Spring break. But, now I'm wondering if it's because the book wasn't liked very...
I have to admit that I haven't finished the book yet. I got bogged down with it, I guess because I've read so many books that make me angry and depressed...
Thanks Liz for your transparency. I think alot of people have no idea how prevalent sexual abuse is. Indeed, I think many people could not accurately define...
Just finished the book and I think Liz put my thoughts into words so well! I found this book very difficult to read too. I usually love Sheila Kitzinger...
I also found this book hard to read - not the language or how it's written (although I agree it wasn't a well-written book) as much as the content. I remember...
I loved the section on how to listen. I am a VBAC mom and didn't find much support after my cesarean. I now "specialize" in supporting VBAC moms and I ...
... I am a childbirth educator and doula, but right now I'm also seven months pregnant with my third baby. I had to put Birth Crisis down and save it for after...
I totally understand Shaileen...as a pregnant woman I think you shouldn't read this book! Don't worry - next month we're picking a much lighter book! Karen...
I think that as a society as a whole we tend to be rather superficial. I know I am making broad, sweeping generalizations, but hear me out. We don't grow our...
I love that idea! ... -- Sheridan, HCHI My Hypnobabies site: www.enjoybirth.com Positive Birth stories are at www.pregnancybirthandbabies.com My Blog is at...
Hi, I woke up this morning thinking about our book club and this book. Maybe it's me, but I feel like we are having a hard time talking about this book. So,...
I wrote this late last night but it didn't post (I sent it from the wrong email address)...I wrote it in response to Jillian's post about the way we like birth...
I think it's great that even though this book may not have been uplifting or a great read we can discuss the topic of birth and trauma. If anybody else hasn't...
I have been pondering more the idea about including a book like this in a college course and I agree it would be very powerful to reach women before they are...
*How can we help women who have been through a tramautizing birth?* Well I know for me I found hypnosis very helpful in dealing with my first birth......
My moms, unless they have serious issues with such, are required to have one hypnotherapy release session. You never know what is being harbored that one just...
I agree, Karen. I think it's very important that we begin talking about the trauma of birth...the reasons it happens, the way it manifests, the ways to avoid...
Wow, this is great! I myself have not used, nor really knew anyone personally who have used hynotherapy. I really should learn more about it! Thanks for...
Hi all, I'm new to the group, and haven't had a chance to read "Birth Crisis" as of yet, but I, too, have been thinking about creating and teaching a class for...
Hi Julie, Welcome! And to your son, Happy Birthday! (if I saw that right) Thanks for joining us and for sharing a little about yourself! This is a great ...
This is EXACTLY what I think needs to be done! I'd really like a group of CBE's to help BOLD develop a short course (a one day intro and a 2-week course) with...
I can help too! Just let me know what you need! Sheridan ... -- Sheridan, HCHI My Hypnobabies site: www.enjoybirth.com Positive Birth stories are at...
I am new to this group and haven't chimed in yet, because I didn't read the book this month, but I have been enjoying the discussion. I'm a doula and not yet...
I put together a class for my local continuing education department. It was just a two hour overview of the culture of childbirth and how choosing a provider...
Another idea I have been thinking about is coming up with an educational session, offered to businesses to present to their employees, about mother-friendly...
