I think it's been done before... not sure.  What do you think?  Would you watch something like this?  Do you think it would be helpful for moms who are getting ready to give birth?

It has been done before. I don't see how it's any more educational to watch a mom give birth live on the internet, live on t.v. or a taped birth on t.v., a dvd or the internet.  I don't think the live factor gives it any benefit to the viewer - surely the mom isn't going to be taking live questions phoned in during the birth (LOL)

Uhm, no. Every pregnancy is different and every labor and delivery is different.... I'm sure this person is trying to be educational but the chances of the other women watching this video having the exact experience is, in my opinion, unrealistic. It might cause false expectations, too. Just my opinion!!! ;)
