As a plus size gal, I find that my clients feel pretty comfortable talking about weight issues with me. I've met some amazing women of all sizes and I've come across some great resources on everything from VBAC scare tactics to snarky blogs for plus size ladies. Here are a few of my favorite blogs, books, and other resources for the beautiful women I serve:
Books:
Birthing From Within by Pam England and Rob Horowitz
Born in the USA: How a Broken Maternity System Must Be Fixed to Put Women and Children First by Marsden Wagner
