“No matter how much planning you do, you can’t control what happens when you give birth. But what the amazing Dr. Kristal Lau so brilliantly teaches is that you can control what comes next.

“I wish I’d had access to this book when I was pregnant. It would have helped me understand better some of the suggestions from my in-laws, and given me help finding that middle ground of respecting elders and their traditions while still acknowledging my own autonomy. . . . I can see this book being of benefit to new Asian mothers around the globe and to women like myself, partnered into the culture. As a general practitioner with a special interest in perinatal care, I look forward to recommending this book to new mothers who are considering options for their confinement month.”
