5 out of 5 stars Thoroughly engaging!   October 4, 2008
I absolutely loved this book. It is written well, and as a previous reviewer said, each chapter can be read in its own right as a mini story/birth experience. I will be honest I wasn't really expecting this to be a good read in its own right, more an insight into Midwifery, but it was both, I would definately recommend it!


5 out of 5 stars A wonderful book   October 2, 2008
As a student midwife I am constantly looking for books about my career choice. Although this is from an American midwife, a country which has a different health care system it is still a wonderful read. Midwifery is all about caring for women and their families at a very important and special time in their lives, which is certainly the main focus of the book.
Highly recommended



5 out of 5 stars Insight .....   June 14, 2007
Wow ... What a fab read ... I came across this boock after being acepted to start training as a Midwife but found It would have been really useful before the interview process...
Although being a bit dated and about the trails and tribulations of Midwifery in the US it is a fantastic heart warming book which gets back to basics of pergnancy and birth.
The basic and honest style in which it is written is really lovely. I would really recomend it .



5 out of 5 stars Amazing and interesting in many ways!   February 24, 2007

I have just read this book and thouroughly enjoyed it, I just couldn't put it down! It's the story of a woman who began off as a helping nurse in the hospital and gradually began to realise that her real future and career was in home-birth. It contains riveting stories of many different women in labour and giving birth as well as other stories involved in midwifery and a midwifes life. This book can be enjoyed by expecting mothers, midwifes or anyone who is interested in this amazing subject. I definetly reccomend it!


4 out of 5 stars Interesting holiday read   March 25, 2006

This book was great for reading a bit of and putting back down as each chapter was a mini story in itself.
Anyone who has children, wants children or has an interest in the miracle that is childbirth will love this story of laughter and tears.
