Natural Birth Prep

I have found that the couples that have the most enjoyable birth experience are those that prepare outside of class.  You have to be a doer not just a listener.  Class will cover many things, but it can not replace your own desire for knowledge or at home practice of the exercises, relaxation techniques, and putting proper eating into action.  
Here are some additional readings to go along with my classes.
