New Year's Baby's Doula
AquaDoula! No, not the labor assistant for Aquaman and Aquawoman--but a website where you can rent birthing tubs (everything included except a garden hose) for $249 for three weeks, $75 each additional week...which I thought was a good deal until I just saw that shipping is an extra $190 (you can call for local shipping charges in the Seattle area.) You can also buy birthing tubs starting at $1199 new, $999 used.
If you're looking for some extra, but not entirely great birth stories, someone who collected and published several stories has put her book up as a free PDF. Some of them I read on birthstories.com.
