{"product_id":"9781906619237","title":"Birth Pain","description":"A book for midwives who would like to explore how best to help women cope with pain and fear. This book contains information about the physiological and psychological functions of pain; cultural influences on the experience of labour pain; elective caesareans, which are supposedly a simpler alternative; advantages and drawbacks of using pharmacological pain relief; information and ideas on how to transform labour pain into an experience of strength and power. While the book provides information on a very wide range of pain relief options and the emphasis is on maternal choice, it also presents many convincing arguments for normal physiological birth. It can therefore make a contribution to helping reduce the rate of unnecessary caesareans and help midwives improve rates of maternal satisfaction. Forewords by Dr Trudy Stevens and Dr Hélène Vadeboncoeur.","brand":"Fresh Heart Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47063331504368,"sku":"9781906619237","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781906619237_p0.jpg?v=1763618408","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781906619237","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
