While 71.4% of the students stated that they were afraid of birth, 73.5% of the students stated that their views on birth changed positively after watching the video. After watching the birth video, most of the students stated that the profession of midwifery is a sacred profession and that the birth is miraculous, while others stated that they did not feel anything. When they were asked to describe their thoughts in one word, they generally used concepts such as miracle, fear, excitement.
