Review
"Hill covers a great deal of material in the book: eating and exercise, tests during pregnancy, risks and complications, delivery-room interventions, and much more...Filled with useful information...While Hill returns repeatedly to the idea of keeping pregnancy and childbirth as natural as possible...she is commendably open about the usefulness of various interventions...Your Pregnancy, Your Way can be valuable both in helping women search for their own version of a 'natural' approach and in showing the limits of that approach and the areas in which modern medicine, for all its frequent depersonalization, may be important for the health and safety of mother and baby alike." --InfoDad"Women aiming for a natural birth will love this new pregnancy guide from obstetrician Allison Hill, an open-minded doctor who offers plenty of information to aid in decision-making...Along with the basic information-exercise and eating, prenatal screening, the stages of labor, pain relief ideas, and more-Hill is able to bring to the table decades of experience in private practice...Readers will enjoy the personal stories and insight, and Hill's down-to-earth, honest perceptions will be welcomed by many. It's so refreshing to see a book that covers natural birth in such a neutral way, packed with valuable information but written so as to appeal to a wide range of expectant parents."--San Francisco Book Review

Description for Sales People
BRIDGES THE DIVIDE BETWEEN TRADITIONAL AND NATURAL PREGNANCY/CHILDBIRTH: Accurate information about natural pregnancies is sparse (and often comes from unknown or unreliable sources), while more medically traditional pregnancy books eschew discussions of natural methods. As an experienced, board-certified obstetrician, Allison Hill bridges the gap by offering a "behind-the-curtain" perspective.
