Re: PSA: A great website
Yes!
I wonder if we can compile a list of websites and/or books that would be beneficial for new people?
this is a great idea... maybe we can get the mods to sticky it at the top.
I'll add my recs here:
Websites:
the NIH VBAC Consensus Conference
Coalition for Improving Maternity Services
Not strictly VBAC related... Spinning Babies
Childbirth Connection
------>What every woman should know about c/section
------>VBAC or Repeat C/S?
Plus Size Pregnancy (a fabulous resource, even if the site is bare bones)
Blogs:
Pushed Birth
The Birth Book Blog
Empowering Birth Blog
The Unnecesarean
Books:
The Thinking Woman's Guide to a Better Birth by Henci Goer
