The Psychological Dimensions of Pregnancy and Delivery

A description of the intense but quite normal psychological work engaged in by a pregnant woman, how it changes her relationship with her mate, what difference this work makes for her future relationship with the baby, how it all comes together at labor and delivery to the benefit or detriment of the mother-infant bond, and how the father finds a place in this process and prepares for the newborn’s arrival.

This tape includes clips of mothers and fathers discussing their pregnancies. As an educational tool, the tape is appropriate for childbirth preparation instructors and physician in-services, as well as for the training of infant mental health clinicians. (AG-2) VHS (19.95) and DVD ($49.95)

Available in the PAL format - the standard format in Europe and other countries.


If you decide to order two or more VHS titles, we will include, at no charge, a copy of the 2008 book: Baby Verses: The Narrative Poetry of Infants and Toddlers. Make sure you put your free copy of Baby Verses in your cart.
