Description
Many first-time expecting mothers expect natural childbirth to be painful. But it can also be deeply spiritual. Sharon Tjaden-Glass, author of "Becoming Mother: A Journey of Identity," returns with a short essay about her second unmedicated birth at a birthing center attached to a hospital. With an air of humility and fearlessness, Tjaden-Glass takes you into the most painful hours of childbirth and tells her story of unexpectedly encountering the spirit of her father--and God.
**This edition includes seven bonus essays: "The World is Good Because it is Bad: A Letter to My Unborn Child" ; "Postpartum Hemorrhage" ; "These Holy Hours" ; "Postpartum Levels of Sleep Deprivation" ; "Week 6: A Great Time to Return to Work" ; "Week 7: And Now My Watch is Ended" ; "Is There Room for Motherhood in Feminism?"
