Reading list: Two essentials

Birthing from Within – Pam England & Rob Horowitz – Way woo-woo but sooo solid and smart ideas for  preparing for childbirth. So many books/doctors etc talk about the symptoms and all the extranal data.  This book talks about art projects to get you mentally, emotionally and spiritually prepared.

Body, Soul, and Baby – Tracy W Gaudet, M.D. -Apparently this woman was a protege of Dr. Andrew Weil. Her approach is a wonderful hybrid of traditional medicine and woo-woo called “Integrative Medicine” – gotta love how these two fields are coming together.  This book has some wonderful exercises and tons of practical info, broken out by trimester, including what to freak out about and what not to freak out about.  Highly recommended. :)
