Great book, and so true to life. My first experience of hospital birth was so much like Naomi Wolf's it was eerie -- cold, harsh nurses and impatient doctors -- I hired a birth assistant for my second child. That made all the difference. It's so important to have a nurturing person who is familiar with the birth experience with you. Husbands can't be expected to do it all -- they are as inexperienced and in some ways as needing of support as the birthing woman.
