Scary- Try "In The Womb" instead... by Krista M. Mott (Warner Robins, GA)  2 Stars
August 04, 2009
My husband and I both agree this movie was very scary- especially having our first child. Also, the technology they talk so highly of in the beginning wasn't used as much as it should have been. They focused on the lives of the 9 women far too much instead of focusing on the title of the movie- Conception to Birth.
If you are looking for a good movie with 3D/4D animations and images, try National Geographic's "In the Womb". It is wonderful and extremley informative. It truly portrays the miracle of life that a baby is.

Good computer animation on birth by Chak Hon Nee (Brunei Darussalam)  4 Stars
May 26, 2009
It talks alot on the development of the fetus in the mother's womb and the process of labour. Computer animation plays a very big role in the success of a whole part of the video. Not much is touched on the conception part (the process of the union of the sperm and the egg) and the details of the sexual reproductive organs unlike the other DVDs I've bought. For those costumer who are based in Asia, I can assure you that you can play the video in this DVD via your computer's DVD drive using Media Classic Player program.

March 12, 2009
This product is a jewel is very educative and opened mind, it help every age to understand the process of life. I personally recommended. The only thing is that the DVD don't have closed caption or subtitle to help you understand better the worlds. I hope that you enjoy it.

Terrible! by Jenney Chendea (Virginia, USA)  1 Stars
December 11, 2008
At 7 months pregnant with my second child, I enjoyed this movie until I got tired of how often they reiterated how painful, practically impossible, and scary pregnancy and childbirth are. I mean, "Childbirth is like trying to fit a softball down your throat?" And they went on and on about how it should be physically impossible, how painful it is... all while showing moms in labor lying on their backs in hospital beds, hooked up to IVs and fetal monitors not being offered any pain relief (like walking around or being massaged or having a shower or a bath or any other comfort measures) until they finally "give in" and have the epidural... It's another ridiculous example of how our media distorts birth and helps cause our high cesarean rates and poor fetal outcomes. My young son was with me, and even he had the sense to say at the beginning, when they took a baby away from the mom immediately, "hey! that baby wants to be with its mother." I do have to say the images of the babies in the moms' bellies while they walked around were pretty awesome. But there was hardly any of that, unfortunately, and the rest of the video isn't worth watching to get to them.

I brought a birth video by Hollymuench (Forty- Fort PA) 2 Stars
August 20, 2008
I did to buy a dvd, and the picture of the women is feeling her tummy. And I said ok I want to buy the dvd, and then it came it was different from the dvd on this site. It was just birth women saiding what they do you to make the mother feel comfortable during the labor and birth, I was very disapointed in it. And then the people I brought it from was trying to make me happy, if they want to do that make sure the dvd you put on this site is the same as what I want to buy from you. That all am saying.
