Quick, Boil Some Water -
The Story of Childbirth in our
Grandmothers' Day
By Yvonne Barlow
Today, we hear stories of over-worked
midwives and short-staffed hospitals, but
the truth is that childbirth has never been
easier. Our grandmothers gave birth when
there were no washing machines, few hot
water boilers and heating came from coal
carried in from the back yard.
"I never thought
I would find
someone else's
childbirth
experiences so
engaging"
