Birth is the feminist issue. It's the feminist issue nobody's talking about. It's time to look again at the balance of power in the birth room. Pregnancy should be one of the most rewarding times of your life - but so often it's filled with anxiety and uncertainty over what you can, or should, expect. Milli Hill explores the history of birth through a feminist lens, and explodes the outdated conventions that mean women still aren't getting what they want and need during their pregnancy. Discover the different types of birth out there, how to decide between them, and the best questions to ask to ensure you get the birth you choose. Packed with practical advice on everything from birth plans to dealing with doctors and doulas, this calls-to-arms is the only guide you need to stand and deliver, and get the birth that's right for you.
