About this listen
The original Spiritual Midwifery, published in 1976, introduced an entire generation of young women to the possibility of home birth and breast feeding. It also breathed new life into the all-but-vanished field of midwifery.
The current edition of this classic book on home birth is now an audiobook, with updated information on the safety of natural childbirth, new birthing stories, and the most recent statistics on births managed by The Farm Midwives.
Ina May also provides new information about potentially dangerous techniques routinely used in hospitals during and after birth, as well as the latest findings about vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC). Improved instructions for handling breech births are also given. Included are stories of working with Amish women, showing a different culture with a similar appreciation for natural childbirth.
Spiritual Midwifery is skillfully narrated by Camille Mazant.
All figures and diagrams referenced in the narration are included in the supplementary PDF.
This audiobook was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Excellent resource for anyone expecting a baby
Such a wonderful book to listen to while driving, amazing birth stories to help reprogram fear around birth and get you excited about the potentially “psychedelic” experience. Such wisdom and insights for me parents and anyone who wants a more positive pregnancy and birth experience. Highly recommend!

Wonderful topic
but I wouldn't recommend to listening to all the stories if you are pregnant. There are quite a few bereavement ones and it's the last thing to listen to in pregnancy. If only those stories would be put together as a separate chapter at the end of the book, with pre-warning. Otherwise, very useful and inspirational
