Barnyard Bradley
After finishing Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way and two weeks of a Bradley method® course, I am totally sold on the Bradley method. The basic idea behind Bradley is that childbirth is a natural process that has been occurring for thousands of years and we're overcomplicating it with our modern medicine intervention. Plus it stresses the importance of the parents' education in all aspects of pregnancy and labor and advocates the strong involvement of the husband as a coach, which I like.
I could tell you all about how it makes sense and recite all the advantages, but I figure that I'm no kind of salesman until I've gone through it at least once. Check back in July for the final verdict.
