Having a Baby - an essential guide for any parent-to-be

Novel Entertainment's production of Having a Baby is an interactive guide to prospective parenthood, introduced and presented by one of the UK's foremost experts in pregnancy and childbirth, Dr Miriam Stoppard.

Having a Baby helps guide parents through the most important months of their lives, offering practical advice to all expectant parents and covering each stage of the 40 week pregnancy timeline and everything you need to know about the journey to labour and childbirth. Having a Baby talks to expectant mothers, fathers and experts who share their experiences in a friendly and informal way, reassuring prospective parents by answering the questions and concerns everyone has.

Using a combination of live action filming, animation and CGI imagery, the DVD contains several special features, including a section clarifying frequently used medical terms; a list of common complaints; and a feature highlighting special pregnancies and special deliveries.
