The Labour of Love Heat Hug & Lupin Heat Bags
Cost : $75

The ‘Labour Heat Hug’ is a uniquely designed velcro adjustable belt which enables two individual lupin heat bags to fit into the belt comfortably around the lower back and pubic bone area.

The heat from the bags can assist during labour to alleviate discomfort and aching of the lowerback and pubic area due to the pelvis opening up during childbirth. The wonderful thing about the heat hug is that you will not have to hold the heat bags on your body, as the belt holds them in the most effective position. This enables a woman in labour to stay focused, calm and relaxed, and not worry about having to hold the heat bags on her body.

Directions: Fit the belt around your body using the adjustable velcro tabs. Heat the two lupin heat bags up in the microwave together taking the small one out after one minute, the bigger one can go in for approximately 2 minutes depending on the microwave watts. Always test the heat bags are not too hot, by placing it on your forearm before putting it into the heat hug belt, to prevent any overheating or burning. When the heat bags cool down, place them back in the microwave for another two minutes for the bigger one and one minute for the small one.

NB: The labour heat hug and lupin bags can be used during pregnancy for lower back ache and discomfort as well as after birth to assist with uterine discomfort and afterbirth contractions, and lower back ache. Warning: Do not place the heat hug belt into the microwave as the velcro will melt! alabouroflove.com.au PO BOX 526, South Fremantle 6162 WA Mob:0418-336-362

A Labour of Love
An Australian Guide to Natural Childbirth

This book presents information in an empowering, confident, open and honest way. Written from the eclectic experiences of Gabrielle who has worked as a doula and independent childbirth educator for eight years, and who has experienced the beautiful, natural births of her three children.

The information in this book is beautifully intertwined with stories from the heart, backed up by factual information and quotes from other authors who write about childbirth education.
The information which is so easy to read empowers women and their partners to feel confident, assertive and in charge of their birth experience. Each and every chapter has something to offer, to assist in acknowledging just what is necessary when preparing for a natural birth.

This book covers so many issues that are often overlooked as being of importance when preparing for a natural birth. Considering the main points addressed in this book are actually 'The Fundamental Ideas' and 'Information' based on factual information which all women/couples should be aware of prior to giving birth and experiencing a natural labour and birth.

-------------------------------

"There's a reason they call childbirth 'labour' - and not, say, 'sport and recreation'. Giving birth is the hardest and most humbling work a woman will ever do. It is also, par excellence, the most loving. Gabrielle Targett's wonderful book approaches the challenge of childbirth from both ends (as it were) - coupling practical advice with an inspiring and joyful vision. For any woman who aspires to be present at her own childbirth - in body, mind and spirit - I cannot recommend it highly enough."

Susan Maushart
Author of The Mask of Motherhood

-------------------------------

"Gaby is a mother of three waterborn babies, and a birth educator using
water for pre natal purposes and also the teacher of aquatics to new
babies and their parents. Her experience plus her training makes her
an excellent authority on the subject. This book is a brilliant contribution of practical and experiential knowledge to those seeking valid information about the process.
This book holds authentic and valuable information and should be read by
anyone planning to have or be involved in a natural birth or waterbirth."
