At around 15 minutes, the sale of this video borders on highway robbery [$$$]. It is completely understandable WHY someone would want to see this video, *desperately* want to see this video as my wife and I did, but the payoff is far to skimpy to justify the cost. First, the shortness makes it impossible to explore the issues involved with Hi-risk pregnancy in any kind of detail. Second, the subject of the video has a fabulous outcome--she has two healthy, average weight babies, and goes home quite early after giving birth. As any one who has been in this situation knows only too well, that is an impossible thing to hope for, and to even think very long in that vein is to sugar-coat a future that could and oftentimes is very different. I'd say it's better to confront what could go wrong. If someone made a video about that, and explored the subject in more detail, I'd pay far more than the [$$$] this video cost. Instead of really offering my wife any substantial analysis of her situation and situations like here, she was "treated' to a cartoonish narrative with a fairy-tale ending.

Have a long chat with the doctor instead of buying this video.
