20/20 recently did a special on Orgasmic Birth to coincide with the release of a documentary by the same name. You should definitely go and check it out
here - just remember to ignore the annoying journalist and focus on those amazing families.
While you're at it, check out the
"Industrial Birth" article in Adbusters written by an Irish woman about her birth experience in an Irish hospital. It's one of the most well-written and well-thought out pieces I've read recently and makes some conclusions that I absolutely agree with and don't see too often in printed pieces.
If you haven't guessed, I'm gearing up to start writing my midwifery applications (thanks for the kick in the pants
keaki83). Will keep you updated of course as things progress.
