My third baby was born at home. It was a planned, unassisted, waterbirth. Deep meditation, aromatherapy, flower essences, and accupressure, were all utilized. Overall labor was 4.5 hours. It was truly a beautiful, peaceful, powerful, and pleasurable birth! The baby descended, spiraling into the water as I experienced the most heightend, pleasurabe sensations of my life. He did not cry after gently floating to the surface of the warm water. I looked at my husband and said, "This is the way that birth should be for every woman, every time." Today, he is an extremely happy, sweet healthy child. I truly believe that this pleasurable birthing experience has shaped my son into a loving person. I believe so strongly in women's ability to have pleasurable births, that I now teach a workshop called Meditative Mama to help prepare pregnant women and their partners.

“As a midwifery teacher, I am only too aware of the reality that will flood my first year students’ sensations as they take their first faltering steps in clinical practice. The film Orgasmic Birth provides a wonderful antidote to that: a great grounding in the physiology of birth beautifully filmed and presented. And this is not mindless indoctrination: the approach is measured, and the parents’ and clinicians’ comments articulate and informative. Watching a roomful of students watching this film was a joy.” Kirsten Baker, Senior Midwifery Lecturer at the University of West England
