Book Review of The Official Lamaze Guide: Giving Birth with Confidence

The Official Lamaze Guide: Giving Birth with Confidence
reviewed on + 18 more book reviews


I am a doula and childbirth educator, and while I don't teach the Lamaze Method, I have found this to be a great resource both as a professional and for my clients. It is clear, concise and gives information about alternatives as well as the standard interventions used as a matter of protocol in hospitals today. Although I also like (and use as a text in my classes) Kitzinger's "Complete Book of Pregnancy and Childbirth," I have decided to use this one in my classes as well, as it has a fresh approach and very up-to-date information. I also think it would be good for younger moms. A great read, a very good resource.
