Product Description
Those who believe that it could be too late in life to conceive a child or that it could be too dangerous to have a successful home birth, should read the personal story of Liz Angeles, who suddenly became pregnant for the first time at age 44 and delivered naturally at age 45. In her new book entitled 45 and Pregnant, Angeles shares the journey leading up to her pregnancy, what she did while pregnant to create a healthy baby and what she has done since birth to continue with her holistic parenting philosophy. Although the self-proclaimed 'wimp' had previously believed that she would ask for an epidural during the birth of her first child, she was surprised to discover that her inherent feminine strength would allow her to have a natural water birth at home, without any drugs or interventions. 45 and Pregnant is a very personal and often comical memoir that takes readers on a venture from terror to triumph, beginning with a single woman pondering spinsterhood and ending victoriously with a vibrant, strong and healthy child. The book contains a plethora of valuable information for mothers-to-be of any age, including those who are considering a natural, home birth and/or water birth.
