Rating: 5.0
Terrific! Detailed and light-hearted
I bought this DVD after reading all of the reviews for the other "birthing" DVD's. Wow, were you reviewers right. This DVD was detailed and very easy to follow. The instructer used visual aids and body language to give a really clear visual of what happens during childbirth. I bought this DVD in lieu of spending $100.00 on a birthing class that would've been very inconvenient for my husband and myself, and man, am I glad I did. I can't imagine a class would've been any more detailed or helpful and it was so great to just pop this DVD in and watch it at my own pace, in my spare time and in my own home. Also, I now have it as a reference and after I give birth I intend to pass it on as a gift for my next friend who has a baby. The instructor was fun and although a little cheesy at times, you can tell she really knows her stuff and loves what she does. Also I felt like she gave a fair shake to women who want to have an epidural and women who don't. The setting for this DVD is the instructor and 5 expecting couples and I would like to say that it really does a great job at including the husbands, which I find really important. I also learned a lot about blood cord banking, even though I don't think I will do it. Buy this DVD! You won't regret it.
