Had to share this really good book with you all:

[PortraitPixie]

I checked it out from my midwife's library:

http://www.amazon.com/After-Babys-Bi...e=UTF8&s=books

It's called After Baby's Birth , and it is soooo well written. And it is written by a midwife. It focuses on the postpartum period for mothers; something I don't think about as often as I do the pregnancy or labor/birth...but should. It is super informative; includes postpartum practices around the world, insights from other mothers, sitz bath and compress recipes, postpartum meal recipes, recovery, breastfeeding...and it goes on and on. I hope you all check it out!

I think I've seen it at my midwives' office. I'll have to look when I'm there on friday.

I bet it is a great book, but I can't spend the money right now. I should see if my midwives have it. They've let me borrow lots of books.

Its not available for 4-6 weeks unfortunately. I'm going to check some other websites, it looks really interesting.
