When I provided a document to doctors and nurses at an O&G medical conference about what women said about their birth experiences, only three of two hundred were interested to see what the mothers had to say. I felt their voices needed to be heard. Women need compassionate care during pregnancy, labor, and birth. Their babies need to be greeted respectfully and gently. This book provides parents with a guide on how to achieve that goal. This book provides maternity care providers insight into birth beyond medical dogma. We can change the future of our humanity with compassionate care.
