In Praise of For a Blissful Baby

“This extraordinary and unique book for expectant parents contains a wealth of knowledge from the oldest tradition of health care on earth—knowledge that will enable women to go through the physical and emotional transformations of childbirth and come out ahead, feeling on top of their lives, feeling better than ever before.”

“Whether you’re planning ahead or already parenting a newborn child, you should read this book—and so should your husband. It begins where modern obstetrics leaves off, providing nourishment and support to both mother and child not only during pregnancy, but during the often-neglected postpartum period. An invaluable friend and guide for dispelling the baby blues.”

“What was also miraculous to me was that in just a few weeks after the baby was born, I dropped all my pregnancy weight. I think a lot of that had to do with exercising regularly before pregnancy and following the Mother and Baby program once the baby was born. Everything just simply and easily went back into place.”
