These DVD's were a fantastic source of current information and the pictures, personal stories and testimonies were great.  The information was very useful and up to date and a great resource for any parent, grandparents and any family member or friends  whose sharing the pregnancy journey and raising of the children.

I especially love the c-section pics, as in my antenatal class with my first child 10yrs ago the main focus was natural deliveries and very little info or pics to share the experience of a caesarean birth, many of us in that group ended up with c-sections due to different medical reasons and I found the experience daunting as I didn't know what to expect, what the procedure endured and the after care of such a major operation, emotionally and physically factors etc. 

The pics and information provided in these DVD's really give some great insight into the whole procedure and is very useful.

I recommend these DVD's to anyone and think they would also make great gifts for expecting families.

Fantastic, thorough, detailed advice; a variety of perceptions; a range of speakers, some lovely families. I really liked your unobtrusive interviewing style Leanne, especially your Minimal Encouragers! Also the way you joined with the interviewee by using subtle humour and by implying that you value their contributions.

I have no hesitation that parents experiencing pregnancy, birth or a newborn will benefit from seeing these videos.  The use of  'real-life' stories makes it more personal and relative to our own experiences.

Testimonials

I had the opportunity of viewing this 3 DVD series in my 8th month of pregnancy- boy would it have been great to watch it earlier!

It concisely bought together and unscrambled all the information I had pieced together over the past months. It was a great review of what I had been through with the pregnancy and the adventures ahead with birth and what to expect afterwards.

It was down to earth, non-judgmental and gave me a complete perspective of what is going on and what is about to happen without ‘scaring’ me.

The use of different experts, real life stories, visuals and opinions gave me a ‘holistic smorgasbord’ of information to choose from without overloading.

Everything was covered, even things I hadn’t thought about. It was easy to follow, educational and entertaining- I watched the series nearly the whole way through with only ‘toilet’ breaks!

What a great tool I now have on standby to refer to and share with my husband about his role.

Thank you Birthing Sense for making sense!

Katherine, Sydney NSW

 

********************************

We recently completed our birth classes at hospital, and while they were informative and interesting, almost every video was not Australian.

I liked that I could skip to parts that interested me and I’m sure that will be useful when I want to revisit parts in the future.  I know that friends of mine who have had their 2nd or 3rd children have said it would be handy to have a refresher before going into labour again.

The best thing about having a DVD in your own home is that you can watch it again, watch it together, and be on the same page about what's going to happen.  I also think that its hard enough to get people i.e. (some fellas) to read the books, but watching it on DVD is much more accessible. 

 I think it answered a lot of questions, but also I think because this is the first time, I wasn't always sure what questions I needed to ask.  I like the drawings too.

Your series gave me all of the information I needed to make informed decisions regarding my birth choices- and so convenient - right in my own lounge room when I had the time to watch.

I took some time this morning while bubba was sleeping to have a look at the DVD.

Content wise it was so much better than the classes I attended. The information was more useful and easier to understand.  The information on breastfeeding in particular was more .

The “dad” stuff was great as there was very little mention of this in our classes and it seemed a bit like dad was a support person and that was it – there was no acknowledgement of dad as a part of the experience so having Coran on it was great. 

It was much more informative regarding the birthing phases and options as well. We had no demonstrations or “practice” of positions for birthing or anything practical in any area for that matter so this was heaps better. All was received was paper information on relaxation etc so having a demo was great.

I've just finished watching the DVD's. What a fantastic job you've done!  Very professional but casual and the infomation is clearly delivered.

As a mum and as a midwife I would recommend it to other first time mums. Some people have a particular book as their bible that they keep referring to, I think this could take that place for many!

In particular, I love the emphasis on breastfeeding. I felt it subtly from the start to the end, and Lisa's birth is beautiful footage.
You've inspired me and I'm already planning my next birth!

I am a newlywed thinking about having children in the next few years. Having very little knowledge about pregnancy, child birth and post-child birth experiences, I found the Birthing Sense DVDs extremely helpful and informative. I appreciated the frankness, sensitivity and simplicity with which the information was presented. I would recommend any person in my position who is planning to have children to watch these DVDs."

I thought the package all round was very good, you've tackled so much - really tried to cover everything which is a mammoth effort, well done. I thought the content was great and the info well researched.

"Birthing Sense" provides pregnant women with the knowledge and skills necessary to achieve a satisfying birth in western society. Insight into the necessary 'know-how' to adequately deal with more complex births is also provided.
A unique feature of this DVD is the viewer meets many allied health professionals involved in birth and parenting 'face to face' - thus giving confidence to self-refer if need-be.

This invaluable educations resource is essential viewing for all women undergoing their first pregnancy, especially women living in remote rural areas and women whose working hours prohibit them from attending classes.
I'll certainly be lending my Birth Sense DVD to all my clients. It will provide endless opportunities for self-directed learning discussions and in the long-term a more empowering birth for the viewer.

These DVDs have been needed for so long.  It is great to have  different professionals giving the information rather than the one midwife sitting in front of the class for the whole time.
