Birthing Naturally (Paperback)  | Released: 15 May 2018

In light of the many complications that arise following a Caesarean-section delivery-infections, excessive blood loss, internal scarring to name a few-more and more women are reverting to natural births. But the ability to give birth naturally depends on the pregnant woman and not her obstetrician-gynaecologist (OB-GYN). Of course, C-sections are unavoidable in certain cases and, eventually, it is the mother's and the child's health that matters. Birthing Naturally is a comprehensive book on pregnancy wellness that aims to increase the chances of expecting mothers in giving a successful and less-stressful natural birth. This book will help you as a friend and as an antenatal caregiver so you can enjoy your pregnancy, and provide valuable tips for your postnatal period to complete your experience of motherhood.About the Author: Dr Mahima Bakshi is a renowned woman and child/adolescent wellness expert in Delhi-NCR.
