It is now published! Available on Amazon – that was quite a journey. Made wonderful by a team of amazing chapter authors and my lovely friend and colleague Dr Jenny Hall as Co-editor. The official launch will be at the Normal labour and Birth research conference early October at Grange over Sands, UK. We hope it brings this conversation to the table or at least begin a conversation. To find oneself, in whatever capacity, in and around childbirth, is to be moved and transformed by an event in human life that is significant on so many individual and societal levels. Enjoy the read and let me know your thoughts.
