Worth it!
My husband and I decided to find a video because our schedules didn't match up with the classes offered at our hospital. After reading a lot of the reviews, we decided to take a chance in spite of all the criticism of her humor. After watching it, I think people make too much of this issue. If anything, she shares a little too many anecdotes. It would be a lot shorter if she stuck to the basic information. But we found it added a lot of color to the information and the anecdotes were also helpful. However, this small issue does not compare to the wealth of information gathered in this video. My husband and I were definitely prepared when we went into labor, we knew what the doctor's and nurses were talking about, and we knew what questions to ask. The video made both of us much more comfortable with the whole process and would definitely recommend this for expecting parents.*Side note: there is one husband who doesn't speak any English, so we were able to make jokes throughout the video about why he was even there & what he must be thinking, so you can look forward to that as well.
