3.0 out of 5 stars good for those who are new to the experience, April 8 2004
By "v_marks" (St. Louis, MO) - See all my reviews
This is a good "starter" video for those who want an in-depth of the "how's" of the pregnancy process; but there are better videos out there (see BIRTH DAY).

And for the record, regarding the review which said "seems to be among the very rare women who are able to give birth without the aid of forceps or an episiotomy." This is ENTIRELY untrue. Many, many, many women give birth without the aid of forceps or an episiotomy. The reason that they are so often used in this country is that the medical profession rushes the labor process, and doesn't allow a woman's body to do what it needs to do, which negates the need for such medical interventions. Watch Birth Day (or call a doula and ask) if you'd like more information. :)

3.0 out of 5 stars From Conception to Birth, Dec 9 2002
By J. Brady "oneblackhorse" (Falls Church, VA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The video was a nice documentary on human conception and birth, with concentration on the female reproductive system. There are a few graphic shots at the very end of the video, during the actual birth, where "Phillipa" seems to be among the very rare women who are able to give birth without the aid of forceps or an episiotomy. The birth scenes are deceptively quick and painless. Only about 5 minutes of this video is about birth/delivery, which was rather disappointing. They do not describe the 3 stages of labor or say how long labor can last, etc.. I also couldn't figure out why they chose a leech and it's host to describe the fetus/mother relationship (yuck). All in all, this is one of the better videos out there, but I have yet to find one that truly focuses on pregnancy and birth. This will probably be as close as you can get... If you're expecting your first baby... READ BOOKS instead.
