"Jorge T. Cuevas's Homebirth Dads: The Dad's
Perspective on Homebirthing is a unique DVD that features fathers
sharing their thoughts and feelings about homebirth, addressing such
issues as safety, cost, their role in birth, and their feelings
about their partners. Authentic and informative, its just-for-dads
perspective makes it a welcome addition to childbirth media. (Jorge

“Thinking about having a home birth?
Watching this DVD is like sitting with a group of experienced home
birth fathers, each with his unique perspective on the questions
that most men have regarding home birth and becoming a father.
Let these men tell you what it was really like to
participate actively in supporting their beloved mates through
pregnancy and the birth of their children. Their honesty and
deep-felt emotions will both teach and inspire you.”

“Thanks for sharing your
video with us! We appreciated the intimate interviews with
homebirth dad's from different backgrounds and perspectives.
While obviously supportive of homebirth, these fathers
honored the intensely personal nature of childbearing
decisions.
Their comments
answered the gamut of questions dad's have about homebirth -
their spontaneous, unrehearsed sharing conveyed the
transformative power of birth for fathers and families.
We recommend this
video to families considering birth at home.”
