Media Review: Happy Birth Day: Birth Strategies and Birth Stories

What is it about?

The article is a review written by Jabina Coleman about two videos produced by Kajsa Brimdyr and Judy Blatchford. The first video, Birth Strategies, focuses on labor strategies, the importance of continuous support, the power of movement, and skin-to-skin contact—all of which demonstrate how women and their families enter into this life-changing event while making informed decisions with power and control. Birth Stories are beautiful heartwarming videos about women sharing their stories and experiences of labor and delivery while integrating the birth strategies.
