Chris encourages you to make decisions based on what you think is best for your family, not to conform to someone else's definition of ideal. Soliciting wisdom from doctors, scientists, songwriters, and the real rock stars–moms–his entertaining insights include:

-You don't need a birthing course
-Babies can't change everything
-Pregnancy sex can be great sex.
