Most women are familiar with the way the current medical model tells woman they should push. Flat on back, curled up, three hard pushes for each contraction, each for the count of 10. What if I were to tell that evidence does no support this practice and that there is a safer and more comfortable way for women to birth their baby? This e-book explains an evidence-based approach to the pushing stage of labor that allows the woman to be in charge and provides a safer birthing option.
