New Lamaze Site


Lamaze has updated their site: http://www.lamaze.org/

PLUS... their Care Practices have been updated! They represent "evidence-based care," which is the gold standard for maternity care worldwide...

#1 Let Labor Begin on Its Own
#2 Walk, Move Around, and Change Positions Throughout Labor
#3 Bring a Loved One, Friend, or Doula for Continuous Support
#4 Avoid Interventions That Are Not Medically Necessary
#5 Avoid Giving Birth on the Back and Follow the Body’s Urges to Push
#6 Keep Mother and Baby Together – It’s Best for Mother, Baby, and Breastfeeding
