Yes Jo, despite loving the 'story', the music, the look of wonderment on the
childrens' faces etc, after noticing the mum on the bed in a couple of
photos, I kept thinking, why isn't she up moving around?!

But how well done was it?!  It's truly one of the most beautiful things I've
seen in a long time.

Seems to be making a big impact on the web.

> I have seen this on a few websites I read daily, as well as here, and i
thought it was beautiful, certainly made me cry. I keep wanting to go back
and watch it again, but each time I am surprised a new by how still the
mother seems to be. You can see how happy and healthy mum and baby are at
birth, so I can only assume she was doing exactly the right thing for her -
but I guess I expected a homebirth to have more moving around, standing up,
etc. There is a big gap in there between 6 and 7:30ish, maybe she was off
going for a walk, who knows, I guess I just can't imagine being able to
spend what appears to be so much time reclining during active labour.
