Reviews

'Too often women feel challenged to expect too much of themselves when they most need care and attention, this book is an excellent reinforcement to that other voice of reason that needs to be heard in postpartum care.' - Dr Suzanne Cochrane, lecturer in traditional Chinese medicine, University of Western Sydney |
