Janet Balaskas

Janet Balaskas is an author, founder of the Active Birth Movement, [See Kerreen Reiger, "Telling Tales: Health Professionals and Mother's Constructions of Choice in Childbirth," "Sociological Sites/Sights, TASA 2000 Conference, Adelaide: Flinders University, Dec. 6-8, 2000 (note 1).] and childbirth educator. She is perhaps known best for her advocacy of "active birth" where the woman is free to move during labour, rather than being placed into stirrups or the lithotomy position. She coined the term "active birth" [ [http://parenting.ivillage.com/pregnancy/plabor/0,,8r1l7d74,00.html Childbirth Choices Guide: Janet Balaskas - Active Birth] Laura Stavoe Harm] which she explained in the first of her books "Active Birth" published in 1983.
