RFI: Childbirth Education (2)
-----------------------------

Dear Dolly,

Professor Justus Hofmeyr at the University of Witswatersrand and
his colleagues at the Coronation Hospital made an excellent
positive video on their Labour Support Project (1999). The video
is about the introduction of doulas [labour coach] to provide
support to women in labour - but because it has interviews with
a variety of women talking about their experiences in labour I
think it would be very helpful to you.

The video was included in the WHO Reproductive Health Library,
CD No 5, or you could contact the Coronation Hospital.

Best wishes and happy Christmas,
