"I was simply amazed that the conference organizers were able to bring together, in one place, world renowed experts in the field of 'birth and beyond'. The scope of topics, participants from novice to expert, and the quality of presentations places this conference in a league of its own." -- Jodi Hall on the 2012 Birth and Beyond Conference
