If you are like most expectant mothers, the thought of labour and delivery can be frightening. And while watching someone have a baby on video isn’t quite the same as experiencing it for yourself it can give you some ideas on what to expect.

Here are some videos on childbirth that you can watch to get some understanding of what to expect:

In this first video you can see what happens during childbirth for a number of women. You can learn about each of the stages of labor and delivery.

In this computer generated animation you can see how the baby will move through the vaginal canal and out via a normal vaginal delivery.

And here is another computer animation video this time of a cesarean birth (c-section).

Viewing video’s like these can give you a better understanding of what to expect when the big day arrives.
