I'm working on compiling and editing a book of homebirth stories, something similar to those found in Spiritual Midwifery, but for today's American woman. I'm looking for midwives, mamas, papas, or kids who have a story to tell. I'm hoping that this book will inspire more women to consider having their babies at home, or at least in a gentle birth setting with no interventions. I have had two homebirths, and really want more women to see that their bodies are capable of laboring and birthing naturally. I know that for me, reading birth stories while I was pregnant was the best way for me to learn about the birthing world. Feel free to write anything that you feel is important in the homebirthing realm. I would also love to include any photos that you would want to share. I will be very respectful and appreciative of your stories. Please email if you are interested. Thank you! nichelehooper@hotmail.com
