"Births of most women in the United States are pushed and pulled along by multiple medicinal procedures and drugs. All too often, this is a harrowing experience. When women's innate, hormonally driven capacities are supported, they can instead have powerful, ecstatic and life changing birth experiences while avoiding adverse effects of the interventions. Orgasmic Birth reveals these essential truths." Carol Sakala, Director of Programs, Childbirth Connection
"At last, a birth film that truthfully shows the safety, challenge, power, transformation and even ecstasy when normal labor and the birth, whether slow or fast, is supported and there is no intervention." Harriet R. Barry, BA, MS, LCCE, FACCE Author, The Pregnant Father and Attitudes Towards the Changing Pregnant Body
"Orgasmic Birth is a phenomenal film, with a scientifically-validated message: that birth is an intimate and innately ecstatic event, as evidenced by the laboring woman's release of "ecstatic hormones"; that we must respect her need to feel private, safe and unobserved during labor and birth to maximize her hormonal flow; and that an optimal hormonal flow in labor will maximize ease, pleasure and safety for mother and baby. It is the perfect antidote to 21st century birth fright. Astonishing, thrilling, and transformative." Dr. Sarah J. Buckley, GP/Family Physician, Queensland, Australia Author, Gentle Birth, Gentle Mothering: The wisdom and science of gentle choices in pregnancy, birth and parenting www.sarahjbuckley.com
"Young women need to see this film, which shows what is possible. Medical and nursing students need to see it, as do family practice and ob/gyn residents, whose training is almost only about surgery and pathology. No wonder we are in trouble!" Michael C. Klein, MD, CCFP, FAAP (Neonatal-Perinatal), ABFP, Emeritus Professor of Family Practice and Pediatrics, University of British Columbia and BC Children's & Women's Health Centre
“Through the engaging stories of different women—some of whom did not have their ‘ideal’ birth scenario—this extraordinary film will certainly help thousands of young women move past the media misinformation and current climate of ‘doubt’ to a place of confidence in determining their own birthing choices.” —Judy Norsigian, Executive Director, Our Bodies, Ourselves
“Orgasmic Birth tells us what is right about undisturbed birth without blaming anyone. It is artful, realistic, dynamic, and full of hope for women everywhere.” —Barbara Harper, RN, founder/director, Waterbirth International
