The Birth Book

All you need to know before giving birth to your baby. With a foreword by Herbert Renz-Polster

From C-section to home births, Nora Imlau covers the entire spectrum of giving birth. She takes an empathetic approach to mothers’ emotions, offering her wealth of expertise to prepare women for this one-of-a-kind experience, to understand it, and to cope even with difficult experiences. Withholding judgment and always mindful, she shows how to strike a balance between being well-prepared and being inwardly open to the idea that even the best-laid plans may come to naught.
Written with honesty and sensitivity, this book is a valuable resource both for pregnant women and new mothers looking to make sense of their experience.
