Midwifery Today, Issue 43, Autumn 1997

Theme: Birth Change

There are plenty of ways to initiate positive change in the choices women have about how they birth their babies. Several authors in Issue 43, including midwives, an anthropologist, a researcher, a doctor, a waterbirth expert and more tell us how to stand tall, accept the challenge to be a birth change agent, and take action. The International Midwife section explains how birth change is happening in Israel, Honduras, Poland and other places around the world.
