With nearly 25% of births in the United States resulting in Cesarean sections, it is unfortunate that first-time expectant parents typically learn very little about the procedure. Cesarean Birth: The Inside Story seeks to correct this inconsistency. Through heart-felt testimonials from parents who have been through c-section and dramatic footage from an actual Cesarean surgery, Cesarean Birth presents an informative look at the procedure and dispels the many myths and misunderstanding that surround it.

The program begins with two mothers describing the same often-repeated story - it wasn't going to happen to them. Cesarean Birth tells the story from this starting point and illustrates the reasons that all expectant parents should learn about c-section.

The program covers the effects and possible side effects of anesthetics, what to expect in the operating room, overcoming feelings of failure, the recovery process, and most importantly, the reason behind c section - to protect the health of the mother and baby.

Review from Booklist
"Although effort is being made to reduce the incidence of surgical deliveries, cesarean sections are nonetheless frequent enough that information, such as that found in "Cesarean Birth: The Inside Story," is valuable. With minimal voice-over commentary, this DVD explains the indications for and the procedure of cesarean delivery and recovery. Again, it is through the experiences of different couples that the DVD covers the medical considerations of "sections" as well as the parents' emotional reactions. Unlike many other videos on the topic, this title includes brief but illustrative shots of the administration of spinal anesthesia and the surgery itself. For its informative and candid coverage, this is one of the best DVDs on Cesareans."
