in Freebies (no spend required)
Apologies if this has been posted before (I did a quick search).

I think you have to ask your midwife for the DVD (not sure).

Anyway, it IS free.
It's nice to be important.....but it's more important to be nice :)

    sorry couldn't resist... on a more helpful note:

    "I am an NHS healthcare professional. How do I order my DVDs?
    The DVD is a precious resource and needs to be treated as such. There are enough for every pregnant woman in the UK this year, so to avoid unnecessary overlap, please make contact with your head of midwifery to establish who in your hospital trust or health board is in charge of ordering."

    Seems this is not available for individuals to order if I am reading the website correctly... :confused:
    :D

    This dvd is excellent. I am a breastfeeding counsellor and can highly recommend it. Its best to watch while you're still pregnant so that you can get off to the best start!!
