As a mum of a now 5 year old who was born via c-section, this book is something I wish I could have read years ago. It's a great reference point for all parents, whether you're pregnant, have recently become parents, are planning a vaginal birth or aren't even first-time parents. It goes into a great depth of detail about expectations, processes, and aftercare. This is a must read if you're pregnant - we don't always get the birth we plan but being informed will help in so many ways. I loved the information around aftercare and scar massage, and will be implementing some of these techniques in my daily life. It was also really helpful to see information about exercise in this guide. Often we are so keen to return to our pre-baby bodies, but aren't aware there are exercises we should avoid as they can hinder our healing journey. A great book!
