Recapping Orgasmic Birth
Our most recent book club selection was Orgasmic Birth, a book I read and loved while I was pregnant with Bear. The book is based on the film of the same title.
Here’s what you had to say about it:
From Kim:
“I had my kids at home back in the 80's. I absolutely loved the experience, and my kids are wonderful, healthy adults. I read a lot of books while I was pregnant, which helped me prepare. I highly recommend this book. It will make you realize how NATURAL the birthing process is! Also, I'm glad the "home birth underground" is still alive and well! Keep it going, mommies!”
See what the community had to say about Meat Is For Pussies.
From Muriel:
“I recently gave birth to a lovely boy and I can highly recommend this book! The book gave me the confidence that giving birth is anything but scary. I hope everyone can have the same wonderful experience as I had.”
From Helga:
“Great film, great great film. So inspiring. I saw it back in 2008 when I was pregnant with my girl and was flirting with the idea of homebirth. I always had this anxiety regarding birth, I just didn't know how it was and worried that everything would go wrong. When I discovered homebirth, that weight was lifted off my shoulders and I was blessed with two wonderful homebirths in 2008 and 2011. Hypnobirthing is also pretty awesome, if anyone preggers is reading this :)”
I’m so glad you all liked it! If you haven't read this book and you're pregnant, please, please, read it!
What should we read next?

Just like orgasmic birth was a must read in order to prepare for my home birth, birthing from within was a MUST! I attribute a lot of my amazing birthing experience to this book. PLEASE READ!!!!! -
The Joy of Less, A Minimalist Living Guide: How to Declutter, Organize, and Simplify Your Life by Francine Jay
I think living a kind life and simplicity go hand in hand. This book is a great way to inspire us to live with what is enough for you not what society tells us we need to have. The best solution is not only buy organic, fair trade, and sustainable but to only buy what we truly need -
Well lets see here. If your a guy that likes women's bodies all of their life and knows a considerable amount about certain features. Id say spandex, its going to happen. Hopefully it happen through love or we wouldn't have this topic to talk about. -
This is really inspiring - I love hearing stories like these. Giving birth is often seen as a scary, painful process and I think anything that promotes serenity and strength while going through it is a great thing!
