Hi, I'm new here and wanted to say hello. I'm a Louisiana Mama (34) to Ethan (1), the sweetest little boy on earth and expecting another in January! I have a fabulous husband, who like me enjoys hiking and experiencing the great outdoors. We are both sick about the BP oil spill, and pray that they can find a way to stop it before a part of our culture and environment is destroyed forever... I digress, I'm here to learn as much as I can about VBAC and natural child birth, as well as to chat with other Mama's. So hi everyone!

Hello!

Welcome, welcome!

Lot's to learn about VBAC. There are some great books out there on natural birth, and some that don't really touch much on it's beauty and benefits. If you are reading What to Expect When Your Expecting, STOP! A good pregnancy book is Pregnancy, Childbirth and the Newborn, it goes over much more than what to expect and more accurate info too.

The Thinking Woman's Guide to a Better Birth is a must read. Gentle Birth Choices is great, it comes with a DVD also, Ina May Gaskin's Guide to Childbirth is wonderful, and The Birth Partner is very very very informative for Dads and Doulas and anyone else at the birth (moms too)

Hope things are going well! Email me if you want to chat, or want more info. I'm a Doula as well, so I have tons of info and sources I'd be happy to share with you for your journey.

Happy Birthing!
