  “Grantly Dick-Read is often called the grandfather of natural childbirth. His simple experiences as a young doctor go far to prove how much our own fear plays a part in experiencing pain during childbirth. Surely, a healthy mother giving birth to a healthy baby is hard work - but it is not, nor does it need to be, the near torturous experience often communicated on television or in movies.”
