Summary:
"With over fifty-two million views on her YouTube channel, Howland's (a.k.a. Mama Natural) funny but informational videos have empowered millions of women to embrace natural
pregnancy
and parenting. Now she offers up a week-to-week natural
pregnancy
book for soon-to-be moms. For the last half-century, control over
childbirth
has been in favor of doctors. Many
pregnancy
guidebooks are conventional, fear-based, and written by male physicians deeply entrenched in the old-school medical model of birth. But change is underway. A groundswell of women are taking back their
pregnancy
and
childbirth
and embracing a natural way. This is an inspiring, fun, and informative
guide
that demystifies natural
pregnancy
and walks mom through the process one week at a time. A modern (and yet ancient) approach to
pregnancy
and
childbirth
. "Natural" recognizes that
pregnancy
and birth are normal, and that having a baby is a wondrous biological process and rite of passage, not a medical condition. This book shows how beneficial and life-changing natural birth is for both babies and moms. Full of weekly advice and tips for a healthy
pregnancy
, Howland details vital nutrition to take, natural remedies for common and troublesome symptoms, as well as the appropriate (and inappropriate) use of interventions. Includes positive birth and
pregnancy
stories from women of all backgrounds (and all stages of their natural journey) along with advice and insights from a Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM) plus a Registered Nurse (RN), doula, and lactation consultant"--Provided by publisher.
