About this listen

For fans of Emily Oster's Expecting Better and Penny Simkin's works:

Award-winning author and birth options expert Henci Goer has done it again. In this, the second book in her groundbreaking Take Charge of Your Birth series, Henci tackles induction.

Focusing on precautionary reasons for induction—suspected big baby, release of membranes, impending postterm, and routine induction at 39 weeks—Henci brings her forty years of experience analyzing and synthesizing obstetric research to the table and creates a judgment-free zone where you can decide what’s right for you.

What’s more, she won’t just provide you the evidence for deciding about induction. You’ll also have the data to implement your choice, whether it be care practices that promote safe, healthy birth if you choose to await labor, guidance on strategies for bringing on labor, or, should induction be medically indicated or simply your choice, what practices the research establishes as best promoting an induction that’s problem free.
