wow...there are so many wonderful things to say about this lovely documentary! Last night I went to CDA with my friends Margaret and Alicia to watch The Business of Being Born and it was such an empowering documentary for women! I'm not going to go on and on about what it is all about, because the trailer pretty much sums it up, but I will say that I think every woman should see this and form her own opinion based on the right choices for her...I truly believe that it can alter the way we think about giving birth and reintroduce the fact that women have been doing this since the beginning of time and we should trust our bodies, minds, and babies.
I came home with a greater appreciation for midwives, doulas and any additional support system a woman may have during birth, but mostly I was on a high from seeing all the babies being born in the documentary (I think maybe 7 or 8 births- and I shed tears at every single one!) and that is what it is all about. :-)
