Rating: 5.0
Perfect alternative for my husband and I
My husband and I are not the "birthing class type." But we wanted to know as much as we could about what to expect in childbirth. So instead of taking classes, we are watching this video. We watched 1 class a week, like a real class would be. That way we didn't have information overload. It was nice to be able to pause it and start it whenever we wanted to. A friend of mine took a birthing class, and I was giving her information she didn't learn in the live class, so I feel I'm getting a lot of knowledge. I had watched the older version from the library first and decided to go ahead and buy this updated version to have and watch w/ hubby. The other thing I like is we have the ability to review sections as the time gets closer to due date. I would purchase this as a gift for any expectant mother in the future too. My husband and I both really like it. Oh, and I've also watched the other 2 DVDs by the same lady (one on newborn care and one on breastfeeding), and those have been very helpful too!
