Your Birth Journey is designed to answer parent's questions they bring to midwifery practice and childbirth. Basically, it is the ultimate midwifery checklist for every topic under the sun. If you don't know, midwives have "checklists" to ensure they are covering relevant information for each mother during her prenatal and postpartum care. Reminders, such as what labs to get, when to order a birth kit, who to have on your birth team, arranging postpartum support, and much more, are ticked off at every visit. Everything I could think of was added to the book. I want parents to be well informed!

The book is divided into three parts. Part One covers the first trimester, labs, supplements, and helpful tips for pregnancy. Part Two is comprised of eight chapters that help guide parents through prenatal care, decision making, and preparation for their birth and newborn. Part Three introduces parents to the fourth trimester. It is a book that every parent planning an out-of-hospital birth should have. It is also a valuable book for parents planning a hospital birth.
