Book Review
I just finished reading "Having Faith: An Ecologist's Journey to Motherhood" by Sandra Steingraber. The book was recommended by my labor doula after the birth of my first child and that child is now almost 5 and I've just now gotten around to reading it! However, I'm so glad I did. The book is a wonderfully lyrical description of one mother's journey through pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding. The book is a little dated as it was written in 2001, however, I still found the historical and biological information fascinating, especially the information in Chapter 12 which describes the intersection between the food chain and environmental toxins and the impact on breastmilk. The book is not like anything I've read in other pregnancy books (and trust me I've read a lot!). You can find the book at www.amazon.com.
Quote of the Day
Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. ~Elizabeth Stone
