I originally shared these on the BWF Blog in 2010. They are still two of my favorites!
This first video, I can only share as a link. It is one of the most amazing birth video compilations I have ever seen. I promise that you will not regret watching this inspiring video!
Click on the following link to watch the video: Partosfrancia (Births France)
This next video is just rad. It is an exceptionally well done computer animated video of conception to birth. It will blow your mind, not to mention the music is great!
Love,
January

I am looking for a video which I though was on this post earlier. On this video a woman was laboring longer “alone” at her home. She was making sounds, mourning, singing, making horse lips, she was really creative on vocalizing. It would be great if you could get this video played again. I think she gave birth by standing.

Awesome! By the way on your 7/5 Find your village post, there is no way to comment, and I just want to say it looks like you’re going to every area of the country except the Northwest…why is that? Portland and Seattle are HUGE supporters of this kind of good stuff!

Hi Aimee, we have already gone to Portland, Spokane, and Seattle this year! 🙂
yuka

The all-natural trend seems to be quite hot in Hollywood, doesn’t it? Having experienced two natural births with a midwife myself, I find this group of celebrity moms particularly interesting.
