    About this audiobook

    From Genevieve Howland, creator of the Mama Natural blog and YouTube channel, comes a “must-read, comprehensive guide that empowers moms-to-be” (Vani Hari, New York Times bestselling author) with week-by-week support to natural pregnancy.

    For the last half-century, doctors have controlled childbirth. Many pregnancy guidebooks are conventional, fear-based, and written by male physicians deeply entrenched in the old-school medical model of birth.

    But change is underway. Women are taking back their pregnancy and childbirth and embracing a natural way. Now, Genevieve Howland, the woman behind the enormously popular Mama Natural blog and YouTube channel, has created an inspiring, fun, and informative guide that demystifies natural pregnancy and walks moms through the process one week at a time.

    In this revised and updated edition, Howland includes the latest research and weekly advice and tips for a healthy pregnancy, detailing vital nutrition information, natural remedies for common and troublesome symptoms, as well as the appropriate (and inappropriate) use of interventions.

    Peppered throughout are positive birth and pregnancy stories from women of all backgrounds along with insights from experts including registered nurses, certified midwives, doulas, and lactation consultants. Encouraging, well-researched, and fun, The Mama Natural’s Week-by-Week Guide to Pregnancy and Childbirth is an essential companion for women everywhere to embrace natural pregnancy and reap all the benefits for both baby and mama.

      A pile of branded bullshit, poorly written, and painfully American.
    • 5/5
      good book. light read. it's also great to hear advice from midwives etc.
    • 1/5
      I thought I would find nutrition information or mind and body preparation tips, but this is just a pregnancy guide for neurotic, pseudoscience loving moms-to-be.
    • 1/5
      I stopped reading right about when she guilts readers for taking prenatals...
    • 5/5
      The book was very educative & thorough ?... I loved it & will recommend it any expecting or soon-to-be-expecting mama... If you are thinking it's only for the natural health junkies, think again. She covered every spectrum you could be on in this pregnancy and birth experience.
