presented by Dr Gowri Motha

This is a wonderful, emotional and empowering video. It shows some actual waterbirths.
We think that these quotes say it all:

“I watched the Water Birth video yesterday in two parts.  In the first bit I found I was deeply touched in that place where I myself was born, as well as at the births of my two boys, and I cried deeply for a while without quite knowing why.

We watched the rest later in the afternoon and I found the joy of birth surfaced more strongly – I was still very moved but more happy and confident.

I felt that your bits were pitched at doctors and midwives but I was not bothered by that, it just felt as though you knew what you were talking about.

And that made a good balance to all the people – the lovely mothers and fathers – and their deep experiences so lightly expressed.

I cannot imagine a better video to loosen the grip of standard hospital methods and open husbands, as well as mothers-to-be, to alternative (complementary) support for their births.

“At the Splashdown E.N.B. approved Midwife study days, the midwives have expressed their opinion that they consider Dr. Gowri Motha’s video to be one of the most valuable aids in learning about waterbirth.  The video is also very well received and very useful in preparing parents to be.”

“These women clearly had a most fulfilling delivery.  I was most interested and impressed to see Dr Motha’s techniques in action and to see successful water births.
