  Very good September 29, 2008 I had a pretty difficult pregnancy (including very bad ligament problems = problems walking etc) and I also had a c-section. Before my pregnancy I had a personal trainer and was quite fit but due to my difficult pregnancy I could not exercise much. I found that this dvd is perfect for me, as the exercises are very gentle (including light abs), and you can really take your time doing them. This is not for those of you that are looking to lose a lot of weight fast but for those of you that want to ease back into exercising after pregnancy, and I would especially recommend this to those of you that have had ligament problems and pains or for other reasons are not strong enough to go back to "regular exercise" (even brisk walking) yet.
I found that the instructor is very comfortable and soothing to listen to, and after feeling that I would never be able to exercise again (my doctor said all I can do is moderate walking and gentle exercise!) due to the pain I was so pleased to find this. After using this for only a few weeks I already feel stronger, and it doesn't hurt to do these exercises! Surely this is not a dvd to lose the pounds, but to strenghten your muscles again, and it has also helped me to gain confidence that I can get back in shape again. It is exactly what the title says -postnatal rescue.
  Excellent September 6, 2008 This DVD has been wonderful and inspirational for reteaching and building the muscles back u[ after birth. It makes you feel good, and the 15 minute intervals are perfect when you've got a newborn and not much time.

I forgot I had bought this DVD and started using it about 6 weeks after having had a c-section, and by that time I was pretty much able to skip right to the second workout of the three. (There was also some bonus stretching material for very soon post-partum, which I would have liked to have tried sooner.) While the three workouts seem a bit repetitive in parts, they go by quickly, and soon after you begin you feel as if you're done. I liked the idea of easing back into exercise and not attempting sit-ups or crunches right away, and this workout gave me the confidence to do that and not worry about injuring myself. The instructor has a little bit of a "I know it's hard but it's necessary" tone which can be annoying at times, but overall she's got a nice, motivational approach. The (very short) cameo at the end by her husband James Denton (from Desperate Housewives) is cute, as you see her interact a bit with her own family. I used this DVD for about 6 weeks, at which time i got back to my regular crunches and such.
  must-have! February 17, 2008 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This is my 6th pregnancy that I am recovering from and this video has been a great help. Erin OBrien gives simple explanations for each movement/exercise used. She explains the "whys" about what a postpartum body is going through and shows sincere concern about her postpartum audience. There are 3 15 minute exercise progressions- completely doable and enjoyable, plus she gives a couple of simple straightfoward tips in each section re: diet and cardio. She also includes stretches you can do beginning the day you return home (which feel so good when you feel so wrecked from pregnancy.) This would make a great gift to a expecting or new mom!
