Thanks Melinda,
That's a start. I'm simply not sure how well researched
fathers in particular, are. I just believe that the active birth movement of the
80's is over and we should now be giving 'permission' for reluctant
Dads not to have to be there.
regards,
Robin

Hi Robin
Not sure if this is exactly what you're looking
for - its not so scientific - however it is among the best stuff on Dads in
birth that I've read.
Try the book "Birthing from Within" Pam England
and Rob Horowitz. She's a psychotherapist/midwife - who has done much work on
the emotional dynamics within the birthing space.
Blessings
Melinda

Subject: Dads in labour
I am looking at doing some research into the
adverse effects a reluctant Dad can have on the course of a labour, and the
way a woman might alter her behaviour so that HE might cope.
Does anyone know of any resources that might be
addressing this?
thank you.
Robin
