About the Book:
Attending Your Grandchild's Birth: A
Guide for Grandparents, by Carolynn Bauer Zorn, should be required reading for the
millions of baby boomers who are heading to the delivery room for their grandchild's
birth. Attending the birth is a great way to begin the lifelong love affair with
your grandchild. Containing numerous anecdotes from those who have been there, this
is the only pregnancy and childbirth book written for grandparents who are expecting.
This
book offers expectant grandparents some information about the birth event and how
they can help. Hospital birthing has changed considerably since today's grandparents
had their children. Besides pregnancy and birth, one chapter discusses the safety
of grandchildren when they come to visit and a chapter called, "What If There
Is No Baby To Bring Home," discusses birth complications and sad birth events.
"My aim is to prepare grandparents and to give them useful tools so they
can be the best they can be on one of the most memorable days of their life,"
states the author.
