Please help me promote natural childbirth on youtube

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey everyone!
I am working on a Youtube video to promote natural childbirth. I am looking for people to volunteer their pictures and details of the birth, to help other moms out there realize how wonderful (in addition to safe) a natural / home or other unmedicalized birth experience can be. If you want to participate, please email me at amyphilo@yahoo.com

Thank you very much! I have already gotten a few gorgeous pics from some of my local contacts but I still need more.

I got inspired for this project while driving home and hearing a song I thought would be just perfect for this topic for my favorite method of making musical slideshows for youtube. If you have any ideas for songs to consider, or stats you think should be included, email me. Feel free to copy and forward this message to someone you think might be interested.

Thanks!

Wow, I didn't take any pics during labor because I wasn't comfy with it but I wanted to let you know I am so happy you are doing this.

Hopefully it doesn't get blocked! I know there are a few home birth videos that got taken down which is so sad.

Just to clarify, I am not looking for pictures OF birth, or of you giving birth or even necessarily in labor. I do not plan to include anything "graphic" of the birth process. I mainly am looking for pictures of either pregnant moms, tasteful ones of them in labor, or mostly, moms with newborns, and family members with newborns, et cetera. =)

I have some! I'll have to dig them out and make sure I have them on disk. I'm pretty sure I do. I have a great one of me in labor laying on my bed with my kitty comforting me!: I have some pretty amazing pictures. I have one of my posterior baby coming out of me - it is the most awesome picture! You can't have that one though! Anyway, I'll see what I can dig up this evening.

Absolutely... you can even embed the video in your site or blogs.

Are the other births on the webpage you linked to fair game for use or not?

oh I misunderstood! If you are looking for pics of newborns I have one that was taken with me and my son about 1 hour after the birth. He is swaddled up and I am in my bed at home. Would that be something you are interested in?

I have tons of pregnancy pics too if you want.

Let me know

Yes, the pics with newborns is what I need. Send pregnancy ones if you want to and if I don't end up using them on this video I might save them for something else, and I will message you if I do so you can ok it.

I got an email a week or two ago from someone who wants me to wait a few weeks for her to give birth so her baby's birth can be included in the video. I am still gathering as many pictures as possible in the mean time, but I will definitely come back here and post when it is through. Thank you for your help and I hope the wait isn't too much longer. =)

Sorry, I am going to PM you when I look more at them. I haven't worked on the video in a while because of juggling too many things at home with the kids and family. Thank you for your help and I will PM you.

The video isn't complete yet. I will definitely post the link to the video here when I am done. If you want to see my other videos you can look at them at youtube.com/amyphilo or play them directly off my website, babywhys.org
