Giving Birth

Original price was: $ 47.00.Current price is: $ 38.00.

GIVING BIRTH is the acclaimed 35-minute film (plus 1 hour of bonus material) by renowned author, teacher, photojournalist Suzanne Arms that 1) reduces fear, 2) increases confidence in the birth process, and 3) demonstrates “the midwife model” for birth. It follows one couple from late in their 2nd pregnancy through their birth at home, attended by a licensed nurse-midwife and a doula. The film helps prospective parents to make conscious choices for themselves and their baby; and shows (or reminds) nurses and physicians what normal (physiologically natural) birth looks like, as that is something they seldom see in a hospital.

The bonus material follows the couple through their uninterrupted first hours with their newborn. It shows the toddler sibling getting acquainted with her new brother; the leisurely initiation of breastfeeding; and the father skin-to-skin with this new baby. It also  includes an interview with the midwife about the couple’s first birth, for which she was also the midwife, and the differences she has found between giving birth in a hospital and giving birth at home.
