Apparently its a must read for VBAC births and anyone wanting a natural birth too I guess.... I've heard great things about it, but just wanted to see if someone had a copy they were finished with or no longer needed!

Silent Knife: Cesarean Prevention and Vaginal Birth After Cesarean

A classic book that remains as relevant today as when it was written more than 20 years ago. The authors look at the high caesarean rates and the reasons for it, then present a diverse collection of stories from women. Positive reinforcement for those women seeking to have a vaginal birth after a previous caesarean.

hmm . my 1st birth was a c sec .. heres to hoping my 2nd one wont be .... i may just have to read it after you ;)

I just bought this book on US Amazon... because of the strong dollar at the moment it only cost me $26.00 from a secondhand seller... its $80 here in Australia which is why I was looking for a copy!

Check it out on Amazon.

:p

Sorry I missed this, I have a copy but I don't want to sell it ;) It was fantastic for me & preparing for a VBAC.

Wow that's a great price, I saw it in my local book shop for $120!! I ended up borrowing a copy from a friend & can't recommend it highly enough, it was a fantastic book :D

Is it really that expensive?! I got mine for $2!

I got mine off amazon as well and it was $20 ish?

Its kinda hard to find too, you have to buy it from the US online if you want to get it at a reasonable price. I've been looking at getting it too but got discouraged when i woulda had to get it shipped over otherwise pay $80 but after reading this thread i have a renewed desire to get it hehe. I might try amazon too.

I just bought it in the UK (as my mum's coming over next week) for 24 pounds ....about 60 AUS dollars. Sounds like you got a great deal there leeloo!

Thanks everyone.... now the only problem I have is waiting for it to get here!! Christmas post doesn't help either!! :rolleyes:
