Thread Starter 
She was on this morning and mentioned the documentery she;s working on about birth. She talked about being a homebirth and midwifery advocate and about giving birth in water. She even stated that she pulled her child out of her!!!! Her own homebirth is going to be in the film. I can't wait to see it. Yeah, Ricki!!!

I watched it! (thanks for the link up there!) She sounds so down-to-earth. Actually, listening to her talk I had a realization: Women who are of the bith-is-normal mindset just speak diffeently. Has anybody else noticed that? (and by different I mean not like the average person -- there is a calmness to their voices when they speak abbout passionate things)
An aside: Was anybody else a little put off by the game involving the people in the crib racing to drink the bottle?

Namaste, Tara
