Description
Although Breastfeeding is a natural process, it is mostly a learned art. Obstacles are the norm, but it is the best start that a mother can give her new baby. Breastfeeding benefits both mothers and babies, it protects babies from disease, and women who have nursed have substantially lower rates of breast cancer. Like the other two video classes in this series, 'Laugh and Learn About Childbirth' and 'Laugh and Learn About Newborn Baby Care', 'Laugh and Learn About Breastfeeding' is a comprehensive, fun and entertaining way to learn everything you need to know to have a pleasant Breastfeeding experience. On her new DVD, Sheri Bayles, RN shares her experiences, gives tips and strategies to avoid Breastfeeding obstacles, explains latch on, holds and positions, especially for breastfeeding twins, pumping, diet, and setting up a schedule that let's you get a good night of sleep. Best of all, in her class you get to watch and learn with real live demonstrations of all the techniques.

Very useful. December 2, 2008

I found this video and the others to be very informative and helpful. I would recommend them for anyone without the time to take a class.
Glad I tried this! May 31, 2008

I'm a first time mom and have had trouble finding classes in my area, so I purchased all three of the Laugh and Learn DVDs. I watched the breastfeeding DVD for the first time today, and was very satisfied with it. I had read reviews that Sheri Bayles is annoying and the film quality is poor, so I was a bit wary. Luckily I found that I really enjoyed the video, and thought that Sheri portrayed herself very well - I would love to be in an actual class with her! I didn't think her humor was hilarious, but it didn't seem like she was trying hard to be funny and entertaining either - she came across as genuine and simply being herself while sharing real-life experiences.
The DVD is rather brief, especially considering the price, but I felt that it presented all the information I needed to know. I realize that most aspects of childcare just require practice and hands-on experience, and after watching this DVD I feel comfortable giving breastfeeding a try. I felt that the DVD would have been overwhelming (especially for my pregnant mind) if it presented any more information. As it is, I feel that I need to watch it again and take notes.
I am very satisfied with my purchase and would certainly recommend this DVD to other moms-to-be. I hope the other two DVDs are equally pleasing.

This DVD shows various breastfeeding positions & gives a wealth of useful information. I would have preferred a little more in-depth information, but it is still well worth the time to watch this (especially if you are first-time parents). I purchased this & her newborn care DVD & found them both to be useful.
 Not many laughs and only limited learning November 7, 2007

This video was informative enough, but it's brief, and really doesn't have anything I haven't seen on You Tube or other free sources. I was a little wary about the humor since the title is 'Learn and Laugh About Breastfeeding' after all, but Sheri Bayles is simply not funny, and at points it's painful to watch. She's clearly working hard to sell her schtick, but the purpose of the video is to get info on breastfeeding, not to allow an outlet for an obviously frustrated comedienne. She knows breastfeeding facts, and she'd do better to just give the information. Finally, it'd be a better video if they included more footage of real babies feeding, latching, etc., rather than focusing on the baby dolls and Sheri's endless banter from the couch.
Good Basic Information November 5, 2007

My wife and I watched this together after watching Laugh and Learn about Childbirth, which was really good. It gives a good baseline knowledge about Breastfeeding, but the lactation counselor at the hospital was awesome!! I would recommend this to new parents, even Dads who want to help out your wives, but don't expect this to be your only source of information and help on the subject. My wife was able to put what she learned in the video right to use after the baby was born. Sheri Bayles keeps the topic interesting in all her videos. Although some of her time lines that she gives in the video seemed a little overwhelming when you see how often you have to feed a newborn and such but it really hasn't been that bad so far.
