The aim of [this] book is to facilitate reflection on possiblities for labour and birth and to suggest that moving outside boundaries considered standard might not only be safe, but also optimal for individual women and babies - and, based on some of the accounts by midwives that are included, optimal for staff as well. Given that client satisfaction and litigation are such everyday concerns for health practitioners today, focusing on how to optimise experiences for individuals, in whatever way, can only be a very positive move into the future. --Prof Soo Downe, University of Central Lancashire
Sylvie Donna's work brings welcome scientific collaboration of the safety of normal, undisturbed birth even as it demonstrates a healthy respect for the potentially, life-saving wonders of modern medical science. It should prove thought-provoking and inspirational to midwives working in the current climate. --Rebecca Wright, doula
It's great to have something so fresh, as I feel that a lot of the books out there say the same things... Many books written for mothers villify staff somehow, so it's a welcome relief to be the intended audience and for that tension not to be there. --A student midwife
A book to help midwives and other health care professionals think through the practicalities of optimising pregnancies and births. After explaining precisely how 'optimal' is defined, nine reasons are presented to justify why this kind of birth is best. Finally, key practical issues are considered and reflective questions provided, so as to give caregivers a clear basis for clinical practice, wherever their place of work. This easy-read, accessible book, which is fully referenced, is equally useful for students of midwifery (or obstetrics, or medicine generally), practising midwives, doulas, and maternity care assistants. This third edition includes changes based on feedback and some additional material.
