About this listen

From Genevieve Howland, creator of the Mama Natural blog and YouTube channel, comes a “must-read, comprehensive guide that empowers moms-to-be” (Vani Hari, New York Times bestselling author) with week-by-week support to natural pregnancy.

For the last half-century, doctors have controlled childbirth. Many pregnancy guidebooks are conventional, fear-based, and written by male physicians deeply entrenched in the old-school medical model of birth.

But change is underway. Women are taking back their pregnancy and childbirth and embracing a natural way. Now, Genevieve Howland, the woman behind the enormously popular Mama Natural blog and YouTube channel, has created an inspiring, fun, and informative guide that demystifies natural pregnancy and walks moms through the process one week at a time.

In this revised and updated edition, Howland includes the latest research and weekly advice and tips for a healthy pregnancy, detailing vital nutrition information, natural remedies for common and troublesome symptoms, as well as the appropriate (and inappropriate) use of interventions.

Peppered throughout are positive birth and pregnancy stories from women of all backgrounds along with insights from experts including registered nurses, certified midwives, doulas, and lactation consultants. Encouraging, well-researched, and fun, The Mama Natural’s Week-by-Week Guide to Pregnancy and Childbirth is an essential companion for women everywhere to embrace natural pregnancy and reap all the benefits for both baby and mama.

completely comprehensive, research based, crunchy mumma, natural pregnancy & birth care book. amazing for mothers, midwives, Doulas and other birth professionals. despite being an Australian doula I found the book completely relatable and translatable . some American birth rules & regulations are different to Australia but the main "natural" content is absolutely usable. loved this book and plan to get a hard copy as a resource in the future

best natural birth care even for Australian mummas
