Pregnancy & Birth Handbook: An Informed-Choice Guide to Pregnancy Preparation, Physiological Labour & Birth, and Postpartum Care
Pregnancy and birth are deeply personal journeys—but many mothers are expected to make important decisions while feeling rushed, uncertain or unaware that other choices may be available.
The HappiHerbs Pregnancy & Birth Handbook is a comprehensive 98-page guide created to help you prepare with wisdom, understand your options and approach pregnancy, physiological labour, birth and postpartum recovery with greater clarity and confidence.
Inside, you will explore:
Pregnancy preparation, nutrition, low iron, due dates and common prenatal tests
Informed consent and questions to ask before accepting tests or interventions
Physiological labour, natural comfort measures and birth preparation
Induction methods, fetal monitoring, epidurals, Pitocin after birth, Caesarean birth and VBAC
Home, birth-centre and hospital birth considerations
Rh-negative pregnancy, RhoGAM, Vitamin K and delayed cord clamping
The golden hour, newborn procedures, jaundice and early newborn care
Postpartum healing, breastfeeding, the placenta and emotional well-being
Traditional herbal, homeopathic and nutritional support
Practical preparation checklists and a fill-in birth-preferences and care plan
Rather than telling mothers that there is only one correct way to give birth, this handbook encourages thoughtful preparation and informed choice. It will help you understand what may be offered, prepare meaningful questions, communicate your preferences clearly and remain at the centre of your own care.
Whether you are preparing for a home, birth-centre or hospital birth, this compassionate guide will help you feel more informed, prepared and supported as you welcome your baby.
For mothers wanting both comprehensive birth education and traditional herbal support for labour, birth and postpartum.
The Complete Kit includes your printed Pregnancy & Birth Handbook along with five traditional herbal preparations:
Labour Initiation Tincture
Black Cohosh • Blue Cohosh • Red Raspberry Leaf
Labour Comfort Tincture
Cramp Bark • Skullcap • Catnip
After-Birth Haemorrhage Support Tincture
Shepherd's Purse • Yarrow
After-Birth Cramp Support Tincture
Cramp Bark • Red Raspberry Leaf • Yarrow
Recovery & Nursing Support Tincture
Nettle • Milk Thistle • Red Raspberry Leaf
The handbook supplied with the Complete Kit also contains the kit-specific instructions, timing and information about how and when each herbal preparation is intended to be used.
The Labour & Birth Kit is not sold on its own. Because proper instructions accompany these preparations, the kit must be purchased with the corresponding physical handbook.
Want all of the education without the herbal kit?
Choose the Physical Handbook Only option to receive the beautifully printed Pregnancy & Birth Handbook without the Labour & Birth Kit.
You'll still receive the comprehensive pregnancy, physiological birth, informed-choice, newborn, postpartum and breastfeeding education contained throughout the handbook.
