The midwife's guide to your home birth

Did you know that all pregnant women in Denmark have the option to give birth at home with the help of a midwife, and that this can lead to fewer complications and better conditions for breastfeeding?

For a healthy woman with a normal pregnancy, giving birth at home is just as safe for both mother and baby as giving birth in a hospital. But how can you prepare yourself, your partner, and your home for a home birth? Midwife Anne Ruby’s "Guide to Home Birth" is a thorough walkthrough of everything you need to know about planning and carrying out a home birth, including practical details, pain relief techniques, and advice on water births, as well as the option to transfer your home birth to the hospital if needed. The book also includes personal stories about home births to help you feel well-prepared and welcome your baby in peace and love.
