“The preparedness that comes with the Bradley Method gave my husband and me a sense of assuredness that we were making the best choice for our son, as well as a true confidence in ourselves.  Understanding all my body is capable of empowered us to trust the natural process, and in doing so, we discovered the beauty of birth. – The Comptons
