Midwifery Today Issue 51
Dads feel all kinds of ways about taking part in their childrens births:
ambivalent, joyous, helpful, helpless, awed, scared, bonded, confused. In Issue
51, eleven articles about fathers involvement in birth address every conceivable
angle to this increasingly popular birth option. Articles on ultrasound, natural
family planning, the call to midwifery, placenta previa and much more
round out the issue.
