My husband forwarded me the same article from CNN.com. A refreshing read about childbirth in such mainstream places!

I loved how the only real criticism of midwives and homebirth is that sometimes its not covered by insurance. They weren't advocating for it to be covered - but i'm sure that some people who read the article might start thinking about the fact that it should be.

Saw that last night, I was very glad to see how they emphasized it's "cost effective"--that's a great way to get the positive attention of the American public!

I'm going forward this to every girl/women on contract list so they can see it as well.

I got all excited when I saw that article. Forwarded it to my DH - we've hit the mainstream! Maybe now more women will start to consider out of hospital births since it's on CNN

Ha, my MIL called to tell me about seeing it in the local paper. Then she called all her friends to brag. I guess now I'm trendy!
