Laugh and Learn About Childbirth book review and trio #giveaway

by 70 Comments

Going into childbirth I was terrified. I have no pain tolerance and everyone says that child birth is the most painful experience in the world. But the thing about pain is that it’s forgettable. So even when I had already gone through it all once with my daughter, I was terrified to do it the second time with my daughter.

Even though, I have no more plans to have anymore children, I have been introduced to a new series and perspective on childbirth. I’ve been looking a book by Sheri Bales, Laugh and Learn about childbirth. It’s the book I needed and didn’t have because it’s about the scariest part. All about labor, the signs, medications, preparations, positions. When I was going into labor with my daughter, it was nothing like the books said it would be. There was no consistency. Even when I called the hospital they said I was not in labor and to stay home. Shortly after calling them, my water broke, I called them again to say I’m coming in be prepared. I had the baby within the next hour. We barely made it to the hospital in time.

In her book she talks about ways to be prepared, positions to help the body deal with pain and help the baby come out more easily. It makes sense to let gravity help right? With my son, I think the most comfortable thing was using the bouncy ball which is one of her recommendations. I just warn you, do not let them break your water unless they have to. The pain after that is unbearable in my opinion.

Going into childbirth with knowledge makes the experience a lot less frightening and out of all the books I read, I have never seen such a fact filled version of what to expect during childbirth. Not only was it really informative there were over 40 illustrations and everything was organized into 6 easy to understand chapters. I’m a very visual person so I really enjoyed all of the illustrations and charts for facts.

Not only does Laugh and Learn have a book collection but they have DVD’s and T-shirts.

  8. From the shirts above, I like the design of the one in the middle the most, although I cannot read what it says..
    From the website, I couldn’t find any books beside the one in the giveaway, but I would definitely be interested in the “Gabrielle Reece Prenatal Workout” dvd.

  17. I couldn’t find any tshirts on the website. From the picutre above I would pick the white one. I also didn’t see any other books. However, I did sign up for the pregnancy magazine. I’m quite sure I am pregnant, so this will be nice to read. Thank you for the giveaway.

  51. As with the others, I couldn’t find books or tshirts on the site, but I like the middle shirt. I think this would be great since I missed out on lamaze classes the first time and probably won’t have time for lamaze for the second because I have an active toddler!
