Synopsis

Childbirth is one of life's greatest moments. Produced by the Common Knowledge Trust, this pack aims to empower pregnant women and make giving birth a rewarding and natural experience. The information is provided in an easy-to-understand book, video and audio cassette, designed to demystify pregnancy, labour and birth, and to give each woman the knowledge she needs to understand her unique body structure and how it works. The demonstrated exercises (best started at 22-26 weeks into the pregnancy) provide practical, realistic ways to prepare for the amazing experience of childbirth, both physically and mentally, and have been seen to be beneficial before and during labour, easing the course of a natural birth. The kit is also accessible to fathers and midwives who want to support women during pregnancy and labour. The information in this kit comes from women and men of different cultures, religions and socio-economic backgrounds, and is a combination of traditional time-tested techniques and modern advances in understanding. The Common Knowledge Charitable Trust has bases in Australia, New Zealand and Zimbabwe. During March 1998, the Common Knowledge Trust held a gathering of traditional and medically trained midwives in the village of Ntshamathe in southern Zimbabwe, organized by Dr Barbara Sibanda, founder and director of the Traditional and Medical Clinic in Bulawayo. Common Knowledge is working to archive traditional knowledge and share this information worldwide. All proceeds of this kit go to the charitable trust.
