I love this book for my Birthing from Within childbirth preparation clients. Childbirth books are often more like text books, full of so much information that it's overwhelming. The Plum Tree Preparing for Baby book is concise, honest, and informative, and it's short enough that parents can actually read and digest the information. It's also beautifully put together.
It really does cover the basics and includes practical information that can facilitate labor and birth and help parents make informed choices. It presents information on breastfeeding but not breastmilk alternatives, so parents planning not to breastfeed (of course along with other special cases) would need supplemental information.
Lovely and informative
I just revamped all of my childbirth education materials in Spanish and highly recommend Plumtree Baby! Their material is fantastic.
Great childbirth education material and quick shipping
Using Plumtree materials has truly elevated our birth classes to the next level, with beautiful easy to understand materials that aren't just dozens of paper handouts! Wiill definitely order again.
