Can you believe it is halfway through August already!  It is an exciting month for THIS IS YOUR BIRTH. The Book is ready for you, and the pre-orders have been sent to their new owners.  A new website is underway and the E-Course/support group is coming together nicely.  
Do you like my new look?


As a subscriber, you should have an invite to  join the secret Support Group,if you have not been added, friend me on Facebook and PM me your request, or reply to this email. (PLEASE NOTE: I am no longer on facebook)
I have hit a snag in starting the group, as I lost my facebook account (nipple offences), which has left me unable to admin the new group.  I have decided I want this group to live off facebook, and am working on a special space.  
In this space you can ask questions, find out your options, participate in 'live' discussions (possibly even video chats) and gain access to evidence-based information.  This space will be ready very soon, and is part of a very exciting development.  The Birth Mapping E-Course!  Being a 'foundation participant' puts you in a privileged position, so stay tuned for more information!
AS PROMISED: CLICK HERE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOUR SPECIAL PRICE
This offer ends August 30th

There are two new and one updated FAQ's on the website:

How much time and money should I Invest in Birth Preparation?

birth classes... 
What is the difference and which one is for me?

 I have my partner - won't a doula get in the way?

I shared The Birth Team on Facebook, where it appealed to many people.

This month we introduce
story time 

The first book is
Hello Baby 
by Jenni Overend and illustrated by Julie Vivas
In late July I 'appeared' on theCircle of Birth Podcast 
talking about my first birth.  
In early August Aly came to hang out at my place, and we talkedabout my second birth.

Check out this awesome new collection of podcasts!
I also added a new blog post, "Danger, Risk and Opportunity"which is an excerpt from:

ORDER TODAY
In early August I discovered that a popular post from January (below) is appearing without link-backs to TIYB on facebook or my website (or bellabirth.org).  

Whilst I am flattered by the popularity of the image (and glad I thought to put my website on it), the uncredited share is not a clean image.  If you see this floating around, please direct people to the original on facebook (link also on the image).  If you see it on a website, let me know.  This image is copyrighted, the artwork belongs to me, it is not a free image to use in this way.  

I am also very pleased to hear that when people see the image, they instantly think of me/TIYB/bellabirth. 


This magnificent image is iconic now.  That feels a bit awesome!
