Описание: In the twenty-first century, expecting parents are inundated with information and advice from every direction, but are often strapped for perspective on how to think through it. Unlike traditional pregnancy guidebooks that offer recommendations, Carrying On helps expecting parents make sense of the overwhelming amount of counsel available to them by shedding light on where it all came from. How and why did such confusing and contradictory guidance on pregnancy come to exist? Carrying On investigates the origin stories of prevailing prenatal health norms by exploring the evolution of issues at the center of pregnancy, ranging from morning sickness and weight gain to ultrasounds and induction. When did women start taking prenatal vitamins, and why? When did the notion that pregnant women should "eat for two" originate? Where did exercise guidelines come from? And when did women start formulating birth plans? A learning project with one foot in the past and the other in the present, Carrying On considers what history and medicine together can teach us about how and why we treat pregnancy–and pregnant women–the way we do. In a world of information overload, Carrying On offers expecting parents the context and background they need to approach pregnancy and prenatal health from a new place of understanding.

Thai massage is the ideal, manual method that a woman can hope for in pregnancy, in the birthing room, and in the months that follow birth. The line work, the pressure of key points, squeezing, rotating, mobilizations, and especially the stretches and Yoga- like postures are exactly what she needs.
I was lucky to treat many pregnant women before ever learning of the many limitations that I am "supposed" to put on the treatment session. My experience has taught me that most pregnancy massage "formal" limitations are far too exaggerated.
This guidebook was written to encourage you to put fewer limitations on your treatment and to use as many as postures, as long as they feel appropriate to you and as long as your pregnant client likes them.
This guidebook presents 25 treatment routines for common pregnancy, labor and postpartum discomforts. The original version of these routines were put together in 2003 by me, Eran Goldstein, and Idit Tyroler. This content was part of a thesis that Eran and Idit were writing at the end of their "Dula" (labor companion) course. This thesis was used as a manual in the pregnancy massage workshops for my students in Israel. I revised these routines with Motke Eilon for this new edition.
These are not traditional Thai massage treatment routines. We are the originators of this collection of treatment protocols. The pressure techniques and stretches, however, are all taken from Thai massage.
