A Midwife in My Pocket: Pregnancy, Birth, and Life with a New Baby, Told as It Really Is (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781524665098)

My career as a midwife is the best in the world. I have written this book in a way that addresses the subjects that pop into your mind between visits to your own midwife.

There is a lot of practical advice that you can access whenever you want to. The chapters cover from the earliest part of your pregnancy through to birth, feeding, settling, and enjoying your new baby.

I hope you will find it an excellent resource as you go through your pregnancy. There are insights into how I felt during my pregnancy and in the first weeks with my new baby. Even midwives can feel vulnerable!

This book will help you visit your midwife prepared for the steps that have to be taken throughout your pregnancy. It is meant as a guide to complement the care that your own midwife will undoubtedly give to you.

As a community midwife, I've amassed many tips and strategies for making pregnancy and early parenthood one of the most enriching experiences.

Writing this book has enabled me to put into words the skills that I have learned and use daily as a midwife.
