5.0 out of 5 stars Breastfeeding benefits ring out loud and clear, December 19, 2000
This review is from: The Benefits of Breastfeeding [VHS] (VHS Tape)
The Benefits of Breastfeeding video is a beautifully-made, fact-filled video that should be a must-see for every expectant mother (and father).

As a breastfeeding educator, I found this video to be an excellent resource for the expectant women I counsel. The video features real-life women from a variety of ethnic backgrounds and ages accompanied by their adorable, healthy, breastfed babies. They discuss openly and from the heart the benefits they and their babies have received from breastfeeding, along with their reasons for choosing to breastfeed in the first place. Seeing those gorgeous, happy babies and the bond they have with their mothers is enough to make the case for breastfeeding by itself.

In addition, Dr. Ruth Lawrence (who literally wrote the book on breastfeeding, and who is also a mother of nine breastfed children) makes an excellent professional spokesperson on the issue. She addresses up-to-date medical information about breastfeeding's benefits and why it is the best first food for infants (less allergies, less ear infections, higher IQs and the price is right, to name a few). It's refreshing to have a female doctor with firsthand experience discuss these important issues.

While the video makes the case for choosing to breastfeed, it also directs new mothers to support groups for help in getting off to a good start.

BOB does a thorough job of helping new parents choose to give their babies the best start in life they can. It would be an excellent addition to every OB/GYN office, pre-natal clinic, birth center and childbirth educators' class and should be required viewing for parents-to-be.
