As you know, I was able to choose to give birth to Lilah outside of a hospital under the care of midwives.

The men of the South Carolina legislature don't feel like it's "safe" enough, and they are introducing a bill that would essentially eradicate this option for women in the future.

If you are so inclined, please sign this petition to oppose the bill (you need not be a South Carolina resident to sign) and share it with your friends.  This doesn't just affect South Carolinian women; this is something that if passed would be used as precedent to pass similar laws in other states.

Pro-choice, right?

Here is one of my wonderful midwives, and my friend and childbirth educator Mary, talking about the bill on our local 11:00 news the other night:
