Orgasmic Birth soundtrack now available on iTunes!
Easter weekend, I had loads of Braxton-Hicks contractions, so I was pleasantly surprised when I woke Tuesday morning, 4-14-09, to a different kind of contraction. Starting around 5 a.m. the contractions felt a bit more painful, lingering in the small of my back and across my entire belly, lasting for around 30-40 seconds and coming every 10-12 minutes. I went ahead and started getting the kids ready for school.
I am so glad I found this website after reading a news article on line. I thought I was the only woman in the world to have experienced such joy in giving birth to my daughter 21 years ago.
I had my twins a few months before your movie came out. I was able to watch your trailer, but it was enough to implant the idea of having an orgasm during the birth. I had a sacred, beautiful home birth with my daughter, but I was having concerns about my upcoming birth with my twins because I was told that I had to birth my boys in the operating in the operating room. I was worried about being over managed leading to stress and fear during my birth. I had a wonderful doula and a supportive husband, and things went wonderfully.

“As a supporter of undisturbed birth, I’ve waited a long time for a film like this! Orgasmic Birth is much more than a film about how to experience pleasure in birth. It’s about viewing birth as a natural bodily function, rather than an inherently dangerous, painful medical event that needs to be managed, controlled and medicated. It’s about tapping into our own natural resources, instead of turning ourselves over to the medical establishment to “save” us from ourselves. Any natural bodily function proceeds best when it’s done in privacy, and this is what the women in the film advocate. Unfortunately, most members of the medical profession pretend that birth isn’t sexual, yet it involves the same hormones, organs and emotions as sex. When we recognize the inherent sexuality of childbirth, overcome our fears and inhibitions, and keep strangers away as much as possible, birth CAN be ecstatic if not orgasmic. It certainly was for me. I highly recommend this film, and know it is destined to change the way society views our most intimate act of creation. We do NOT have to choose between a medicated, medically managed birth and a painful, difficult “natural” one. There is a third choice and Debra Pascali-Bonaro has found it!
