So what are you supposed to do?  Hypnobirthing is the best option for any new mother who wants to be able to enjoy a natural birthing experience, without the pain, and without the scary medications.

Random House presents the audiobook edition of How to Grow a Baby and Push It Out by Clemmie Hooper, read by the author. Everything you wanted to know but were too embarrassed to ask - a guide to pregnancy and birth straight from the midwife's mouth. Mum to four little girls and midwife to many, Clemmie Hooper wants to share her knowledge, wisdom and stories about pregnancy, birth and mothering young children that aren't so widely talked about.

Being a mum is an incredible journey, a remarkable experience that changes how we look, how we feel, who we are. As mothers we are strong, protective and proud. We feel a love like no other. But being a parent can be hard, too. It challenges us physically, mentally, emotionally. There are the days where just managing to fit a shower in amidst the endless feeding, entertaining young children and surviving on a lack of sleep feels like an achievement.

This is not a parenting manual. This is real life. The Unmumsy Mum writes candidly about motherhood like it really is: the messy, maddening, hilarious reality; how there is no 'one size fits all' approach; and how it is sometimes absolutely fine to not know what you are doing. The lessons she's learnt while grappling with two small boys - from birth to teething, three a.m. night feeds to toddler tantrums, soft play to toilet training - will have you roaring with laughter and taking great comfort in the fact that it's definitely not just you....

Hypnotherapists, mothers and experienced meditation teachers Sam and Nicola guide you through a positive and reassuring journey to motherhood through visualisation, affirmation, breathing techniques and mindfulness, and the audiobook even includes how to combat morning sickness and difficulty sleeping.
