In Honor of Mothers’ Day, a Film Showing

I will be hosting a showing of the film “Born in the USA” on Sunday, May 17 at 6 p.m.  Yes, that’s a week after Mothers’ Day…but I expect to be busy with my kids on Mothers’ Day.  ;-)

I have used snippets of this film in my childbirth classes for a few years, but have never shown the full length feature since there simply is not enough time for that in my classes.  However, I’m excited to invite people to join me in watching the film, then an open discussion afterward.   The film was produced for PBS, and looks at low-risk childbirth in America in a hospital setting with an obstetrician care provider, an out-of-hospital birth center with a certified nurse midwife (CNM), and homebirths with a licensed midwife.

This showing is open to anyone, whether you have children or not.  There will be a period of discussion following the film.  Contact me for more information!
