I've not read either of those, but have been directed to a book entitled "Natural Midwifery" about having a natural birth - it's American, but I can't remember the author. I think I'll be stocking up on reading material this weekend - good thing I have an age to wait around on trains and planes on Monday! I'm getting all excited about this again, which is good - I just hope that DH will start paying an interest too. I might have to get him his own baby book so he doesn't feel left out LOL. He's just about gotten used to pregnancy, I don't think he's thought about birth yet.

Shame we mostly studies nematode, xenopus, salamander and drosophila development at Uni: all my textbooks have pictures of how frogs grow etc, but very little on what my baby's doing! Ah well, I can coo over mouse bone development just as much as I can do human I suppose.
