Sensitive Midwifery by Caroline Flint
This new and enlarged edition gives even more practical advice for today’s midwife, student midwife and
birthkeeper, but it also explores the ethical and moral dilemmas that face today’s practitioner. The delightful illustrations by Helen Chown keep the book fascinating, fun and easy to read, and the input and wise editing of Deborah Hughes add great depth to what will become essential reading for every midwife. Lots of practical advice, from positions in labour, to breastfeeding, to setting up support groups for women, midwives and families.
Born out of a total of nearly a century of midwifery practice, this book charts the way through the moral dilemmas and difficulties which face today’s midwife (and obstetrician) and has been used by medical students to learn how to suture, how to perform a caesarean section and, at the same time, how to care for women gently and sensitively.
Waterbirth for the 21st Century – Love, Skills and Knowledge is the latest work from internationally
respected waterbirth pioneer Dianne Garland. Drawing on decades of clinical expertise, Garland offers an invaluable blend of history, global research and practical guidance for supporting mothers, babies and midwifery professionals through labour and birth in water. From antenatal preparation to professional education, the book equips birth companions, midwives, doulas and maternity teams with the confidence and evidence they need. Featuring inspiring stories from families and practitioners worldwide, this is an essential resource for anyone committed to safe, compassionate and informed waterbirth practice.
