Home Birth: A Modern Memoir on Pregnancy, Midwives, Fitness and Choices : CCB Publishing : 9781771434836 : 177143483X : 20 Oct 2021 : As a new mother, Home Birth is the book Cera Gagnon was looking for but couldn't find when she was pregnant for the first time. What does childbirth pain really feel like? How scary is it without pain meds? And is it even remotely safe to consider birthing at home? After grappling with such questions and with continuous reports of emotional and physical childbirth trauma she was inspired to reveal her own story. She shares her journey through a harrowing fertility diagnosis, 3 pregnancies and home births, and important things she learned along the way (for example, 'slow it down in order to speed it up'). In her journey not only did Cera Gagnon discover a whole different model of care, but she also found herself smack dab within a global informed-choice movement. This book doesn't tell you what to do.
