Taking a practical but lighthearted approach, she helps every new mother-to-be feel in control and ready for the big day.

- Why a good birth experience is a great objective
- How and why it’s best to avoid a ‘medicalised’ birth
- Everything you need to know about Caesarians
- What every woman is entitled to before labour
