Birthing Sense has produced a DVD Series that makes sense of your pregnancy, birth and early parenting experience. Brought to you in the comfort of your home at a time that suits you, to watch over & over again. Each DVD runs for approx 90 minutes. Also available as a 3 DVD Set.
DVD 2 in the series explores both vaginal and caeserean birth.
Many experts assist in describing how focus and relaxation help through your labour.
Some of the complaints people have about standard hospital birth classes is that they do not have the opportunity to practice positions for labour and birth- now you can- in your own home!
Skin sensations, breathing and massage have long been used as a form of pain relief for the labouring woman. See what the experts (massage therapist, yoga instructor, breathing specialist, midwives) have to say about how to use other strategies to have the birth experience that you want.
There is a special segment by our Doula, Susan just for support people- with some hands-on tools for assisting the labouring woman to birth. Chemical pain relief is mentioned as we all know that having an open mind involves being educated about ALL of the options relating to childbirth. We also discuss what happens when you require an induction of labour.
Lisa shares her birth plan and we watch her labour and birth in an active way in a hospital setting. Liz, our physiotherapist talks to us about looking after our pelvic floor after baby has come through.
Midwife, Carolina talks about what to expect if you have a caesarean birth. Mother, Amanda talks about her experience when she got to breastfeed on the operating table. Liz, physiotherapist discusses precautions after your caesarean.
There is a special segment by NSW Midwife of the year, Carolyn on what to expect from your 'just born' baby, and what they need from you. We all know the importance of the first breastfeed, and Leanne (Lactation Consultant) gives some more information on breastfeeding that follows on from the information in DVD 1.
GP, Saroja also talks about what to expect fro your 6-week postnatal check up.
Physiotherapist, Liz discusses the pelvic floor, and exercises to help us get back to normal after a caesarean or a natural birth.
