I pre-ordered mine from America when it first came out (very eager lol). I don't think there is a full showing of it online, i think "netflix" would have it though other than that you would have to...

I would definitely go with the calmbirth classes as with hospital classes they have to follow certain policies and therefore a great deal of information they give you is biased. Any sort of private...

Small meals, Don't drink much fluid with meals, Don't lie down after meals and try putting some bi-carb in a drink of water

I agree with a previous comment, I don't take pills either I just try and eat a healthy diet but I still supplement with particular things like.... -Zinc -Cacao powder -Spirulina -Spatone iron sach...

I also vaguely remember something about the membranes being able to repair themselves early on in the preg, but not late, as they are too stretched & tight?? something like that was discussed du...

This policy has always confused me. So if your waters break at 24 weeks they do everything in their power to ensure you DON'T go into labour and baby stays put, but if you are at term you only ha...

Hey ladies, I had a swab done a couple of weeks ago and I went to see my midwife today and the results show that I tested positive for Group B Strep. I understand it's a normal bacteria and isn't ...

Hi Meg, Just thought I'd offer to give you a copy if you haven't been able to get hold of it online yet. PM me if you're interested.

I had a planned unassisted birth with my third child about a year ago, if you want information I highly suggest you join the joyous birth group and get into the forums, e-mail me if you are having ...

My third child was posterior and I didn't notice too much of a difference, it was just far more intense at the end. My last was also a homebirth so no I didn't have any drugs

Sounds just like some painful braxton hicks...it's a good sign that your body is preparing and changes are happening with your cervix. Don't worry of they happen again...just wait it out and you'll...

Just thought I would mention a great dvd called, "Breech In The System". If you would like a copy please feel free to contact me! also this link may e helpful to you http://www.bellybelly.com.au/bi...

YES YES,ME ME! I was only 16 when I had my first child but I knew i wanted it to be filmed just because I knew birth was special and I thought it would be great for myself as well as my daughter to...

One which I have heard about for a while but never bought it until recently is Birthing From Within by Pam England. It is my new MUST MUST read for ANY woman going to give birth, even if its her 3r...

What are the chances of baby turning head down at this stage?? I have had 4 natural births, my first was breech but still delivered naturally (16 yrs ago) have been told most likely to have c sect...

has anyone done it? any tips? i would love to record the birth of my next baby. Hey I recorded my first, second and plan on the same with my third i am expecting in August which will be a homebi...

With both of my births they where drug-free and I really didn enjoy it. More so with the second i had done it before but it really wasn't that hard to deal with. Most of the time i just walked back...

This is reported in around 5% of pregnancies at the 18-20 week scan. There is no need to worry if you are amongst this 5% – you can continue your daily activities as per normal unless you have been...

There is a lot on my essentials list but really I personally rather to have more than less especially when i had my first as its all new etc. ~~LIP BALM for labour (A MUST) ~~Socks and slippers for...
