"Awesome book" according to barbara. Really love this book talks a lot about facts in a way that it's not boring or stale. Good info
Most women give birth in hospitals where the delivery bed was designed for the benefit of the obstetrician.

Despite research showing the benefit of upright positions in labor and birth, most women in the UK still give birth in the semi-reclined position, pushing against the forces of gravity
